Sen. West urges expansion of bus obstruction monitoring to protect riders and improve access Sen. West told the Environment and Transportation Committee SB 936 would change ‘bus lane monitoring’ to ‘bus obstruction monitoring,’ allowing enforcement of illegal parking in bus stop zones when transit vehicles are present to improve access for seniors and riders with disabilities; members asked about a fiscal note and whether the bill mandates cameras.
