A23 Patcham bus and active travel scheme

As part of our work to speed up bus journey times and to reduce congestion we’re planning to install a new bus and active travel scheme on A23 Patcham in spring 2025.

We’re now asking for your views and feedback on the plans.

More information

In 2022, we were awarded £28 million by the Department for Transport for our Bus Service Improvement Plan. The money is being used to improve bus services and provide lower fares across the city.

Funding has been provided to speed up buses.

This includes a new shared bus lane on the southbound side of the A23 Patcham between Brangwyn Crescent and Brangwyn Drive. As this part of the road is very wide, there wouldn’t be any need to reduce the number of traffic lanes.

The bus lane would operate 24 hours a day and could also be used by taxis and cyclists. It will be installed under a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO).

Have your say

Have your say on the proposals until Monday 9 September.
