Rochford Town Centre Area Action Plan - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 16647

Received: 30/11/2009

Respondent: Arriva Southern Counties

Representation Summary:

We would agree with the comments on the limitations of the current town centre bus stops. There is a need for good shelter facilities and, given the success of the concessionary fare scheme, there are accessibility issues with the current stops. The key services 7 and 8 are increasingly operated with low floor vehicles, requiring good passenger access at bus stops.

We would be keen to work with the Council to improve the legibility of the bus stop locations and bus stop information.
