Pity the first paragraph and the headline create the impression that bikes are banned from tollways.
The Ban applies ONLY to limited access highways and as the reporter rightly says, the orders making the tollways limited access highways are void.
The situation is that bikes are legally banned from limited access highways but the tollways are not limited access highways so the bans are all illegal.
Of course that is only what the Supreme Court and the law says which apparently is not important. The TRB and the tollways are able to defy the course as they please.
