Answered by Simon Lightwood
The Department is carefully considering options in developing next steps on bus stop bypasses. Active Travel England has been involved in those discussions as the executive agency of the Department with a remit to help deliver increases in walking and cycling. The Disabled Persons’ Transport Advisory Committee has also provided input, in their role as a statutory advisory body on disability transport issues.
