I was unable to attend the previous Maidstone Quality Bus Partnership meeting, however, some key points taken from the confidential Minutes are:
· Operational matters regarding policy enforcement and bus stop access were discussed. · The new Local Plan will address ‘air quality’ via the Strategic Planning, Sustainability and Transportation Committee. · The QBP were advised regarding the committee date and decision for the Park & Ride pilot review. · Issues with a new bus stop provided by a developer on the A274 were discussed. · Bus Station improvement plans are at an early stage. · Bus operators reported to the QBP during a separate session. · The secured S106s for bus infrastructure were reviewed. · Dates for next year’s meetings are to be confirmed. |
