Lowestoft's public transport infrastructure is facing significant challenges that compromise passenger safety and accessibility. Many bus stops across the town lack essential amenities such as shelters, paved waiting areas, and are often obstructed by illegally parked vehicles. These shortcomings make using public transport difficult, particularly impacting vulnerable groups like the elderly, parents with prams, and wheelchair users.

We urgently need Suffolk County Council to prioritize the installation of proper bus shelters to protect passengers from harsh weather conditions. Additionally, paved waiting areas should be created to provide a safe and comfortable place for people to wait. The visibility of bus stops must be improved with clear and prominent flags, ensuring passengers and drivers can easily determine designated stopping points.

Moreover, the enforcement of no-parking zones at bus stops is crucial. Parked cars not only obscure bus stops but also prevent buses from pulling into designated areas safely, causing inconvenience and potential danger for passengers boarding and disembarking.

To address these issues effectively, we are calling on Suffolk County Council to arrange a public meeting where residents can voice their concerns and propose solutions. The community's input is vital to make informed and impactful changes that benefit everyone.

Improving the safety and accessibility of bus stops in Lowestoft is not just a matter of convenience but a necessary step towards making public transportation a viable option for all. Let's come together to urge Suffolk County Council to take immediate action. Sign this petition to show your support for a more inclusive and safer public transport system in Lowestoft.
