Purpose

The purpose of this proposal is to upgrade the
existing bus stop on the A683 Melling Road at Hornby, with
enforceable clearway markings and signs allowing buses to pull in
safely and efficiently at the stop. The proposal intends to promote
sustainable transport for all users by including the construction
of a raised platform, allowing safe boarding and alighting of
passengers.
