Isle of Wight Bus Lanes & Bus Gates — Operating Times

Bus lanes and bus gates in Isle of Wight, with hours, permitted vehicles and who enforces them. Isle of Wight Council has confirmed it issues no bus lane penalty charge notices, but the restrictions remain in force.

Covers Newport, Ryde, Cowes, East Cowes, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor, Freshwater, Yarmouth, Bembridge, Brading and Wootton Bridge — bus lanes and bus gates in these areas are enforced by Isle of Wight Council, so any we track there are listed below. They are listed by road name, exactly as the road appears on the PCN and the roadside sign.
