Correct answer

  • BSí, cuando el carril se ha abierto por obras en la calzada.Yes, when the lane has been opened because of roadworks on the carriageway.

Normally, lanes opened for traffic in the opposite direction to normal may only be used by cars and motorcycles. But when they are opened because of roadworks on the carriageway, all vehicles allowed on that road may use them, including lorries, unless this is expressly prohibited.
