A motorist has managed to dodge a fine for driving through Manchester’s divisive bus gate — but others won't be able to now.
The driver, who has asked to stay anonymous, contacted the MEN after he won a traffic tribunal with Manchester council. He was handed a fine for driving through the Bridge Street bus gate — which opened at the end of last year — on February 20, 2023.
“I looked at the video and it was clear as day,” he explained. “I drove through it, there was no excuse.”
