Transport hubs are intended to offer useful facilities that make it easier and more appealing to travel on foot, by wheel and by bus – providing a connection point between these different forms of transport. They also offer an attractive focal point for communities, helping to boost town and village centres.
We’re working with communities to develop designs for attractive new main transport hubs in Clevedon, Nailsea and Portishead. In Weston-super-Mare, we also plan to upgrade the existing Worle Interchange.
The four transport hub designs and locations have been directly shaped by conversations with community representatives, residents, businesses and bus operators – to create sensitive, attractive designs tailored to local needs and the environment.
While hub designs differ from town to town, they include features such as high-quality bus shelters and waiting areas, cycle facilities, Information points, real-time information displays, cycle parking and planting.
We’re also developing early concepts for potential smaller transport hubs in several locations, including Pill, Long Ashton, Weston General Hospital, Yatton, Congresbury, Worle High Street and Cleeve/Claverham.
We will share opportunities for local communities to help shape and feedback on the designs as they evolve.
