Following a reappraisal of this scheme, which originally included removal of the Moor Bridge traffic island and traffic light signalisation at the junction, we are now seeking comments on new proposals for an inbound bus lane on the A611 / Hucknall Lane, alongside improvements for pedestrians, accessibility improvements at local bus stops and full carriageway resurfacing for all road users.

The scheme, which is funded by the Department for Transport, will support the Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan which aims to improve the reliability and punctuality of local bus services, encouraging increased use of buses, which are key to providing access to jobs and opportunities, supporting local businesses and new housing developments, and reducing congestion on the road network.

Please send over any comments on this scheme to [email protected] by the end of Tuesday 30 September 2025.

You can download a pdf version of the plan here.

About the Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP)

Nottingham City Council have received government funding to deliver projects between 2023 and 2025.

While the Section 114 Report means that money Nottingham City Council can spend is currently strictly controlled, because external grant funding has previously been specifically allocated and approved for these schemes, it can continue to go ahead.

The Greater Nottingham Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) will deliver projects and programmes that improve the area’s bus services – including reducing fares for young people, delivering buses that are more frequent and reliable, and improving passenger waiting facilities.
