A259 St Leonards-on-sea Bus Lane Enforcement Notice

East Sussex County Council are committed to improving bus passenger journey times and making our services more reliable.

The aim is to increase the use of public transport and reduce congestion and traffic pollution. Because of this we will begin enforcement of the bus lane in St Leonardson-sea. The location is a stretch of the A259 Grand Parade from a point on Eversfield Place running westwards to the junction of Warrior Square (west). The misuse of bus lanes affects journey times and can cause frustration to motorists who follow the regulations.

These bus lanes are identified by road markings and road signs. The bus lane will have road markings and the words ‘Bus Lane’, and will be separated from the lane used by normal traffic by a solid white line. Signs will also be displayed showing a white bus on a blue background. Where pedal cycles, motorcycles and taxis are allowed these will also be shown on the road markings and blue signs.

The enforcement of these bus lanes will use a digital camera system that records vehicles illegally making use of the bus lanes, with a PCN being issued if an unauthorised vehicle enters the bus lane.

Bus lanes have the times of operation on the approach signage. If the sign does not show times then it operates 24 hours.

The penalty for illegally using a bus lane is £70. This is reduced to £35 if you pay within 21 days. Failure to pay or challenge the issue of a penalty charge notice within 28 days of it being served may result in the charge increasing to £105.

Enforcement will commence on Tuesday 6 May 2025 A period of warning notices will be issued on commencement.

Revenue from the scheme will be used to pay for the installation, upkeep and running of the system. Any surplus income from fines will be reinvested in our local transport schemes.
