If the lane is always virtually unusable, then it's fair to say it's a permanent condition.

That is my entire point. If traffic is blocked because of double parking and that lane now becomes a bus lane, even with enforcement, it is unreasonable to assume that it will be clear all of the time. Buses will now have to shift into the only moving lane for cars which has to make things slower, further reduce capacity for autos and cause congestion.

The sensible thing would be to allow cars to shift to Classon Avenue where there is excess capacity instead of first removing that excess capacity before SBS takes affect.

I am not aware of sny streets except near a beach where summer traffic is higher than it is during the other nine months. That plus the typo in my mind makes the accuracy of DOT's work highly suspicious.
