Did you know, 11 million journeys are made by bus every day?
Buses reduce traffic and pollution and get millions of us where we need to go.
Let's protect bus services, and improve journeys, with more bus priority including bus lanes, and #BetterBusStops.

Attractive bus stops with accurate information on display would help both locals and tourists to navigate the bus network.

This great piece from @kentandsurreybylines.co.uk highlights why #BetterBusStops are so important:

How bus-stops matter
The Campaign for Better Transport has set out a demand for four types of bus stops to be standardised across the nation, so that passengers can enjoy a more reliable level of service

I’ve emailed the Buses Minister calling for better buses. If you agree that every community deserves a decent bus service and well-maintained bus stops, please take action like I did: bettertransport.org.uk/camhttps://y... #BetterBusStops

As the start & end points of more than 10 million journeys a day, bus stops matter.

All bus stops should have current, accurate timetables on display.

Our blog calls for a national standard for printed information at bus stops: bettertransport.org.uk/blog/all-bus...

All bus stops should have current, accurate timetables
Bus stops matter. As the start and end points of more than 10 million journeys every day, they should give travellers a positive experience. And printed information is central to that.
