Following concerns raised by local residents, the North Swindon Neighbourhood Policing Team have recently run an enforcement and education operation at the Torun Way Bus Gate. Officers have been patrolling the bus gate at various times over the last 2 weeks, and during that time issued £50 penalty notices to 41 motorists who drove through it. Other drivers have also been given advice by officers after they stopped short of entering the lane when thy noticed the police presence. Drivers are reminded that the bus gate is for buses only and that this is a traffic calming measure intended to keep your own community quieter and safer as a result. Officers will still be patrolling the bus gate on a random basis and enforcing it’s proper use where necessary, though in the long term we understand that Swindon Borough Council intends to buy cameras which will be used to monitor all the bus lanes and bus gates in Swindon.
