Over the next 3 years we are committing to delivering:
a brand new £13.5m coach and bus station at St Margaret’s, which is the first carbon neutral bus station in the UK (delivered in June 2022). Further details can be found here.
a feasibility study with the Racecourse and seeking funding for a larger new site to the east of the City close to the London Rd/Leicester Rd.
Possible location of new park and ride site at Racecourse
Bus stops
The humble bus stop is the start of everyone’s journey. It needs to be a comfortable, clean place to wait with good up-to-date travel information.
During 2022/23 we are committed to installing:
Over 500 new illuminated shelters with seating at all high-use bus stops. 30 will be green roofed and bee-friendly.
Bus stop ‘totems’ at over 1025 Mainline and Greenline stops. Each will have joined-up printed timetable and fares information.
Over 650 of the totems will have real time information displays and text-to-speech facility for those with visual impairments.
