Passenger transport interchanges

A passenger transport interchange with comprehensive facilities may be appropriate for particularly large developments that generate high passenger numbers. Development proposals and maintenance responsibilities will be considered on a site-by-site basis.

Developers should consider active travel connectivity to transport interchanges in accordance with LHDG and Local Transport Note 1/20 "Cycle Infrastructure Design" guidance.

Examples of developments and locations might include:

  • major retail parks;
  • hospitals;
  • business parks;
  • significant new housing estates;
  • extensions to an existing major development where it will help to encourage greater use of passenger transport;
  • developments at locations where bus routes intersect; and
  • where major orbital and radial roads intersect.

Examples of facilities might include:

  • a waiting room or minibus station;
  • comprehensive timetable and route information, including real-time bus information;
  • secure facilities for leaving luggage;
  • toilets;
  • refreshment facilities; and
  • secure cycle parking.
