Proposals to improve a Norwich bus artery are to be revisited following safety concerns raised by residents and campaign groups.
Through Norwich’s ‘Transforming Cities’ fund, £6.1 million of government cash has been mooted for spending on revamping the busy St Stephen’s Street.
But at a Thursday meeting of the council’s joint committee for the fund, councillors agreed more work was needed before any plans were set in stone.
The scheme would see a jagged pavement to create new ‘sawtooth bus bays along the street, which a council report says would make it easier for buses to pull away after picking up or dropping off passengers.
