    Do anyone know, are these huge CCTV cameras on the corner of Frederick street junction and on the O'Connell street from Parnell street take a photo of offenders?
    Are there the bus lane cameras in Dublin?

    And how it is actually with bank holidays. Can other traffic use bus lanes which are Mon to Sun?..

    Not contra-flow bus lanes. They can never be used by other traffic.

    Normal bus lane operating hours are dictated by the plate displaying their hours of operation.

    Private cars cannot go from Parnell Square East to O'Connell Street at any time.

    Thanks,
    Yes, i understood about that one from Parnell Square to O'Connell st.
    So better is to stay away from bus lanes with Mon to Sun on bank holidays

    A bus lane on a Bank Holiday is treated no differently than one on a regular day.

    Is anyone catched using bus lane any other way than caught by garda. I mean what are these small round cameras over traffic lights for?

    Im not saying that im going to use bus lanes. No of course, just wish to know what is worst case scenario if caught and how it is happening here.

    Traffic warden or guard only.

    No CCTV for this but you never know Dublin could become like London

    I thought push bikes can use them? Leo V shook up the rules a few years ago

    Sooner the better with people around who only obey the law when they think they are going to get caught.

    Red light cameras and bus lane cameras are two things we really need ASAP.

    It is sad that enforcement is necessary but there are always aresholes around who think they are more important than the rest of society.
