    Any concession that riders get is worthwhile,as it gets the authorities used to the fact that we expect and receive concessions.
    Also more car drivers will consider converting as they sit in queues watching us filter past.

    So what's going to happen to the left-turning traffic then? I go through there every day, and switch to the left lane just after the bus lane ends (usually... ) Are you saying the lturn left traffic will have to share the centre lane? 'Cos that's not going to work...

    The bus lane will be on the left hand shoulder. There will be a new left turn lane and an island, and you will cross the bus lane to turn left.

    I take it the rules are still the same in 2008 ... can't use the truck lane to shoot past the queue?
    Does anyone else use the Grafton Gully on-ramp to the Southern?

    I thought this thread ended up with us having permission to use the priority lanes?

    At any rate I've been using them all over Auckland, every day to get to uni. Went past plenty of coppers too.

    Well, it doesn't matter if we run them, we were given permission to use the priority (truck) and transit (T2) lanes, so we don't have to `run' anything.

    Unless you're talking about the signal lights, in which case I wouldn't worry too much about running those. Mind you, they probably carry the same weight as a `real' red light, so I'd be careful
