.@Keir_Starmer @AndyBurnhamGM the Bus Services Act 2025 was as we understand it, in response to Andy’s work rolling out the Bee Bus Network. The Act originally was to ensure safety and accessibility at bus stops however a new clause bizarrely added by @LordBlunkett on floating…

The Oxford Road floating bus stops in Manchester are still not working. Time to rethink the design and allow all pedestrians to board and alight the bus without having to cross a cycle lane. As recommended by the British Standard 8300-1:2018.

London buses now travel at an average of just 7.1mph  Congestion, roadworks, 20mph speed limits, and the expansion of cycle lanes and Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs), have all been blamed for the decline. standard.co.uk/news/london/lo…

.@AngelaRayner @wesstreeting @AndyBurnhamGM will you carry on with the Governments approach of using floating bus stops in cycle lanes? Andy this will be difficult for you given that these have been installed in Greater Manchester however they are not working for blind people.

New zebra crossing at Blackfriars Station floating bus stop. We have tried to explain to @cityoflondon why these bus stops are not safe or accessible for blind people but more are being planned. @citylordmayor can we urgently meet to discuss our concerns please. This is dangerous

@w9maidavale @CityWestminster Excluding people who need to get there by bus, black cab etc is not on. Oxford Street needs to be accessible for all & pedestrianisation will not achieve this. Businesses need customers & customers need to get to businesses. The purple pound is an integral part of the economy.

Less than a week before the government issued floating bus stop guidance in January, @TfL and @MayorofLondon published a botched report giving the go ahead to a hugely problematic floating bus stop on Shoreditch High Street without any equalities assessment. Blind people will be excluded from their bus services.

@Keir_Starmer @NiaGriffithMP You’re not watching our social media channels as your Government’s new Guidance on floating bus stops is literally designing blind people out of being able to travel by bus independently. It’s not fair and it’s against the UNCRPD. x.com/NFBUK/status/1…

Inexplicably, not only have the Conservatives won control of Westminster, but the incredible cabinet member for Streets Max Sullivan has lost his seat 😩 He had so many schemes planned, so many underway. It’s utterly devastating. I’d like to say a big thank you to Max. … 1/3

@DailyMail Floating bus stops simply do not work for blind people. The council really need to take them out and let all passengers get on and off the bus with out having to cross a cycle track. x.com/NFBUK/status/2…

.@kg_williams Can we ask please you how did this design end up in the new floating bus stop guidance? What evidence did you use for it to be in the guidance? It is not safe or accessible for blind people and we want to know how it made it into the Guidance please.

.@Keir_Starmer Routing cycle lanes on & through the pavement at bus stops breaches BS8300-1:2018 ‘Design of an Accessible & Inclusive Built Environment’ Section 6.2.2 on Bus Stops which states ‘pedestrians should have access to & from the bus stop without crossing cycle routes’.
