Tower Hill Bus Stop Improvements

23/07/2020 - Bus Stop Improvements

The Committee received and considered the report of the Office Manager concerning £10,000 of S106 funding for bus stop infrastructure on Tower Hill.   There had already been a site meeting with ward Councillors.  A proposal had been put together by OCC which was significantly over the funds allocated to this project.  The Town Council had previously purchased some bus shelters which were under £3,000.  OCC had agreed that the Town Council could choose the supplier.  County Councillor Price was very interested to know costings and to see if she could help source additional finance.

 

Members debated how to proceed.  It was felt better to choose a stop on the side of Tower Hill on which buses went into town.

 

RESOLVED:  that the report be noted and the final decision on design and add-ons for a bus shelter on the town centre bound side of Tower Hill be delegated to the Chair and the Office Manager.
