Frequently asked questions
What are the operating times of the Marjon Hill bus lane?
The Marjon Hill Bus Lane in Plymouth operates at any time. There is no time of day when general traffic may use it.
How much is the fine for driving through the Marjon Hill bus lane?
Plymouth City Council issues a Penalty Charge Notice of £70, reduced to £35 if paid within 21 days. There are no penalty points — it is a civil penalty.
Who is allowed to use the Marjon Hill bus lane?
Buses and pedal cycles are permitted. Not permitted: cars, vans, lorries, taxis and motorcycles.
Can I appeal a PCN from the Marjon Hill bus lane?
Yes, and it costs nothing. Make formal representations to Plymouth City Council first — the authority that issued the PCN has to consider them before it can enforce the penalty. If Plymouth City Council rejects them it must issue a Notice of Rejection, and you can then appeal free to the Traffic Penalty Tribunal. Its adjudicators are lawyers independent of the enforcing authority, and their decision is binding on both sides. This bus lane operates 24 hours, so "I was outside the operating times" is not open to you — the grounds that win here are that your vehicle was exempt, that the details on the PCN are wrong, or that the signage did not make the restriction clear. Note that paying the £35 discounted rate accepts liability and closes the case, so challenge before you pay.
