Inner Distribution Road (IDR) multi-modal enhancements – public transport

The issue 

High amounts of traffic on the IDR cause congestion which makes public transport an unreliable means of travel.  

The scheme 

Enhancements to public transport in this scheme include:  

• Improved public transport provision, including giving buses priority  
• Improved travel information at bus stops  
• Increased capacity at public transport pinch points  

The outcome  

• Improved bus journey times and reliability 
• Reduced congestion  
• Improved air quality
