Mayor Bloomberg and the MTA hope to speed bus travel in NYC through its fast-track program. On certain routes, bus-only lanes will be painted terra cotta for higher visibility and officials will seek “an extraordinary level of enforcement” by police to keep out cars and trucks. Bus lanes in Manhattan have always be regularly enforced but an expansion of this practice can only lead to more moving violation tickets being issued for improper use of a bus lane, improper turning and obstructing traffic tickets.
