Bus stop improvements

Bus stop improvements

Illustrative graphic

We’re proposing to make changes to 10 pairs of well-used bus stops to make them:

  • Safer, more comfortable, and better lit
  • Easier to access with possible new and improved crossings
  • Simpler to use with up-to-date digital travel info
  • Better for buses – which will be given more priority over other vehicles
