BA0134 - TILN LANE, RETFORD – PROPOSED BUS STOP CLEARWAY – NO STOPPING MON-SAT 10AM-4PM EXCEPT BUSES – PUBLIC ADVERT

Closed 21 Jun 2024

Opened 24 May 2024

Overview

The County Council works closely with all public transport operators across the County to identify bus stops that suffer from inconsiderate parking. On Tiln Lane, an enforceable bus stop clearway will prohibit other vehicles from parking Mon-Sat 10am to 4pm at this bus stop, and this will be clearly identified with new road markings and signage. The main benefits of bus stop clearways are to:

  • Help the bus align with the kerb to enable better access for disabled passengers and pushchair users;
  • Ease congestion as a correctly aligned bus will not block the road for other road users;
  • Ensure that bus drivers discharge their duty to drop passengers off on the kerb and not on the road;
  • Ensure that bus services operate on time and are not unnecessarily delayed.
