Purpose

The purpose of the proposal is to upgrade the existing bus stop to a Quality Bus Stop Clearway including the installation of a raised boarding platform. This improvement will enhance safety, comfort, and accessibility for passengers using the stop.
The proposed bus stop clearway will ensure unobstructed access for buses, allowing them to pull in and out safely and consistently. The aim of the proposal is to improve bus journey times and service reliability while also supporting safe and efficient passenger movement.
