Work will start in autumn 2024 on Moor Bridge roundabout between Hucknall Lane and Moor Bridge Road. This will see the introduction of new bus lanes and traffic signals, which will prioritise buses and improve journey times.
What’s happening?
- Removing the mini roundabout and replacing it with traffic signals with push-button pedestrian crossings
- Providing buses with priority at the junction, which will improve reliability and journey times
- Introducing two new bus lanes operating 7am – 7pm (Monday to Friday) on the inbound and outbound approach to the junction
- Improving pedestrian and cyclist facilities, and addressing the road safety issues by introducing a toucan crossing
About the Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP)
Nottingham City Council have received government funding to deliver projects between 2023 and 2025.
While the Section 114 Report means that money Nottingham City Council can spend is currently strictly controlled, because external grant funding has previously been specifically allocated and approved for these schemes, it can continue to go ahead.
The Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) will deliver projects and programmes that improve the area’s bus services – including reducing fares for young people, delivering buses that are more frequent and reliable, and improving passenger waiting facilities.
