That's my daily commute and honestly, it's the norm. Early this week at rush hour, two coaches turned in whilst people were riding towards the lights.

That scheme is misconceived--the position of this modal filter at the main street junction is wrong. As I never cease to repeat ad nauseam, filters should be installed in the centre of a traffic cell, not on the edges, and certainly neither without actually filtering it (filtering every possible through route for motor traffic).
I've seen drivers drive across that space, too, mainly in confusion (the old thing about the 'flying motorcycle' signs, which are exactly the correct signage here, not being recognised by drivers).
The other thing that happens, because the area behind isn't filtered, is that drivers rat-run via Coronet Street and Boot Street. It's annoying because the whole scheme will need to be re-done in the not-too-distant future.

Maybe not the best junction to be in the cycle lane/crossing on...
