The City of Cape Town plans to place poles along the N2 bus lanes to help clamp down on illegal usage of the lane.

Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security JP Smith said the illegal usage of the bus lane remains a major problem in the City.

Smith said the poles will be placed at six in the morning, and will then be taken off at nine so that vehicles do not duck in and out of the bus lane causing traffic problems.

“We do enforcement operations, have put in new cameras which will all help, but there are also some engineering solutions which  that we need to bring to bear, we cant just solve this entirely with enforcement as the capacity is simply not there” he stated .
