# The Motorways Traffic (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2019, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)
These Regulations amend The Motorways Traffic Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2008 by substituting new Schedules for Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 and adding lengths of bus lanes on the hard shoulders of the M1 Motorway and the M2 Motorway and a length of the carriageway of the off-slip from the M2 Motorway to Duncrue Street. The Regulations also amend the hours of operation of the bus lanes specified in Schedule 1 so that they now operate during the hours between 7.00 a.m. and 7.00 p.m. on the days Monday to Friday inclusive and the bus lane specified in Schedule 2 will operate at any time.
Any person who acts in contravention of the Regulations shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale (£2500). Traffic signs indicating the effect of the Regulations will in due course be placed on the roads.
