As people may be aware the battle for a bus shelter on Eastway has been ongoing for some time now.
The requested was refused due to the narrow width of the pavement in this area.
See:
However I am now very pleased to report that following negotiations with ASDA for the use of some of their land (Big thanks to ASDA) the shelter can now be accommodated . Also a passenger count has been undertaken and the number of passengers boarding has met TfGM minimum criteria for a shelter.
The next step in the process is that the proposals are presented to TfGM’s Bus Networks and TfGM Services Committee in October for approval.
Hopefully works can start soon after that.
