Correct answer
No.
No. When opened to improve traffic flow, a lane against the usual traffic direction admits only motorcycles and cars without trailers. A lorry cannot use it merely by obeying the speed limit. When opened for roadworks, vehicle types permitted on that road may use it unless expressly prohibited, subject to the applicable signs, lights and speed rules.
