I will say a bright color on bike/bus lanes does make me feel safer when cycling. I wish that at a minimum we could get full green paint on all of the bike lanes.
But yeah, I don’t really ride my bike in the bus lane even though it says it’s only for bikes and buses. It’s a defacto driving lane on Chestnut even where it’s fully painted because nobody does anything about it.
You could setup a literal single police officer to patrol the multi-block bus lanes and they would make a killing writing tickets…

Chestnut through center city is the worst. I actually prefer market. Cars double parking and honking at cyclists in the bus/bike only lane. People are driving through the densest part of the city and are surprised they are sitting in traffic? Take the damn train/bus or sit in the traffic you are causing.

in new york the buses on those routes (bus rapid transit) have cameras and send tickets directly to the license plates.

they have no problem doing it on the PA turnpike, so it should be easy enough to implement.

If city council doesn't see a clear and obvious way to embezzle the money, they're not interested.
