Initially, the lane is located along the section between quai d\u2019Issy and porte de Bercy, which runs through the northern part of Paris (in both directions). In the next phase, this traffic organisation will be extended to the entire ring road. The use of the left lane on selected routes is a pilot project. The first evaluation of its effectiveness will take place in September and December 2025, and then in March 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The left lane designated for public transport and mass transport is activated from Monday to Friday during the following hours (with the exception of weekends and public holidays):<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f 7:00 a.m. &#8211; 10:30 a.m.<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f 4:00 p.m. &#8211; 8:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>During these periods, the lane can only be used by:<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f vehicles with at least 2 people on board.<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f Public transport (buses, coaches and vehicles transporting children to school).<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f Taxis.<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f VTC vehicles (carrying at least one customer).<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f Emergency and security service vehicles, including private ambulances.<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f Motorcycles and scooters (when driving between lanes or with a passenger).<br \/>\n\u27a1\ufe0f Vehicles of disabled people if their users have a mobility card (CMI) or a European parking card. In this case, prior registration in the Handi\u2019Stat system is necessary to avoid a fine.<br \/>\nVehicles with a GVW over 3.5 t carrying goods are NOT allowed to use this lane when this traffic organisation is in effect.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ui centered message\" style=\"border: 1px solid red;margin-top: 20px;text-align: center;padding: 15px;border-radius: 15px;padding-top: 30px;padding-bottom: 30px\"><b>Ci\u0119\u017car\u00f3wki powy\u017cej 3,5 t przewo\u017c\u0105ce towary NIE mog\u0105 korzysta\u0107 z tego pasa w godzinach jego dzia\u0142ania.<\/b><\/div>\n<h2>How to recognize the special lane?<\/h2>\n<p>The lane is marked with a square sign featuring a white rhombus. When the sign is illuminated, the lane can only be used by vehicles of public and mass transport; when the sign is off, the lane can be used by all vehicles.  In addition, the lane can be temporarily closed by the police prefecture in the event of road accidents, emergency situations, days with exceptionally low traffic. Drivers will also be informed whether the special lane is in use by VMS panels placed along the road.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the penalties for violating the driving ban?<\/h2>\n<p>For the first two months (March-April 2025), i.e. the transitional period, if the system detects a vehicle with a single occupant, it will display a warning message on the VMS panels, but the driver will not be fined. <b>Starting from May, drivers who fail to comply with the ban will face a fine of \u20ac135.<\/b> Compliance will be monitored by a computer-assisted camera system that can identify vehicle type (e.g. taxi, bus), count passengers from the front and from the back of the vehicle, and recognise license plates. Camera footage will be analysed by authorised officers, who will ultimately decide whether a breach has occurred and whether a fine should be issued.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since March 3, a a special lane has been added to the Paris ring road and sections of the A1 and A13 motorways.
