Re: UPDATE: Main St traffic and the new Bus Only lanes

From what I've noticed at Bus Only lanes in Manhattan, like on Third Av, the overhead signs say "Buses Only" at corners where right turns are impossible (because the one-way traffic is going the wrong way) and they say "Buses and Right Turns Only" at those corners where right turns are possible. Ahead of those corners, the solid line separating the bus lane becomes a dashed line, indicating that cars turning right can enter the bus lane there to turn right at the corner.

At the Flushing location I observed near the library, there is no street to turn right onto, so the sign says only "Buses Only". I'm guessing that at other locations where right turns are possible, the overhead signs will say "Buses and Right Turns Only" along with the dashed lane marking.

Also noticed today are several new "No Left Turn" restrictions, to prevent a car waiting to turn left from blocking the only available traffic lane.
