Apply for additional bus shelters

Additional bus shelters can only be provided where funding is made available specifically for this purpose.

This funding may come from:

• our own resources
  
• a property developer
  
• other sources
  

You can make a request for a new bus shelter by emailing transportationhelpdesk@poole.gov.uk.

Location of additional bus shelters

We keep a list of locations where additional bus shelters have been requested. 

We prioritise bus shelter locations based on the:

• number of bus services using that stop
  
• popularity of bus stop
  
• distance from potential demand, for example residential areas or employment centres

We must also consider:

• width of footway
  
• road safety (sight lines)
  
• location of underground services
