Auckland City Council's policy of fining motorists $150 for driving more than 50m in a bus lane is not supported by more than half the wider Auckland population, according to a Herald-DigiPoll survey.

A total of 56.2 per cent of respondents do not approve of the policy, which has led to 41,169 bus lane infringement notices worth almost $6.2 million issued in the year to June.

The policy has 38.1 per cent support with 5.7 per cent of "don't knows".

Also, 70.9 per cent of people think bus lanes should be more heavily labelled.
