Has this situation been resolved yet or too early to comment?

The Fox 4846

From what I've seen today between 12-2pm In the peak and higher demand times buses are getting caught up. At 2 today most of the Lancaster circus buses were using dale end and the priory Queensway because of the backlog and buses were routinely late from what I saw. Also is this bus gate in operation as I saw not a single motorist turn back and instead continue along the bus gate.

The traffic from Albert street is that bad that is causing a bus queue all the way down carrs lane.

I wonder if they'll get fined for breaching the bus gate!

(I know they won't)

No traffic lights,  cannot see any point in them, but at the gate there's U turns available for any traffic that does accidentally stray up to them

The local rag finally got around to doing a report on the bus gate:
