Transit Lane Benefits Extended for EVs

Good news for NSW EV drivers! You can now use transit lanes regardless of the number of occupants until mid-2025. This perk, originally introduced in 2022 to boost EV adoption, got a quiet extension late last year.
​
Previously, these lanes (marked T2 and T3) were reserved for buses, taxis, and carpools with at least two or three people. The extension aims to make EVs more attractive by offering faster commutes for solo drivers.
​
While the initial program was set to expire in November 2022, it was first extended to October 2023. Just before that deadline, the NSW Minister for Roads stepped in and secured a further extension, lasting until June 2025.
