Bus stop, junction of Bricknell Avenue and Fairfax Avenue

John Fareham and John Abbott are working to resolve problems with the bus stop at the junction of Fairfax Avenue and Bricknell Avenue. Some local residents – perhaps especially those older than the two of us – have been making representations to us regarding the location of the stop and the absence of a bus shelter. Given the conflicting opinions on the latter point, we have asked the officers to consult with local residents on this matter in the hope of finding a better place for the stop and/or a consensus on the provision of a shelter. It goes without saying that we are not seeking to force a solution on local residents, who may however wish to take a look at the Rainhill Road bus stop, with its electronic board showing when the next three buses are due, as an indication of what could be done if the funds to do so were available.
