A bus shelter for the 18 stop outside the Abbey has been secured thanks to your local councillors.

Liberal Democrats on BathNES Council have delivered huge improvements to the quality of High Street between the Guildhall and the Abbey, but the 18 bus stop has been moved into a more exposed position by the Abbey. No shelter was planned for the new stop, but after a cold winter of wind and rain one is clearly needed.

Councillors David Martin and Nicholas Coombes have lobbied the council on behalf of Bathwick residents for a new shelter. Agreement has now been reached, which will see the shelter installed shortly alongside the others planned for High Street.

The new shelters will be of a bespoke design chosen by the Public Realm Strategy, and delivered as part of the improvements to public transport in the Bath Transport Package.
