Quite a lot of this kind of stuff, to great detail, is laid down in
the T+Cs set by the IOC.
The only opportunity to argue the toss is when bidding, which is a bit
risky and not to be recommended when you are still trying to win the
bid.
Once the successful bid has been announced everything becomes
contractual and you're stuck with it.

That's not what Ken Livingstone has been saying these past few weeks on LBC
(Saturday mornings). He has re-iterated that TfL should have insisted to the IOC
that London knows more about running London than they do and that the Mayor's
office should decide the details of the Olympic lanes and who may use them.
In particular he has been adamant that buses should be/have been allowed to use
the Olympic Lanes.
