The Conservative lead County Council has agreed an ambitious plan for a new enhanced partnership with bus companies, and many highway improvements to improve bus reliability.

A new Intalink Enhanced Partnership will see bus companies and local authorities working more closely together to improve the bus networks. Key plans for the partnership include giving buses priority on congested roads and measures such as:

• Prioritising bus and coach services in traffic
• Improving the image of bus travel
• Upgrading bus infrastructure
• More closely integrating the bus network
• Making smarter use of data and information

Alongside the Enhanced Partnership, there is an A414 delivery plan that includes 24 public transport schemes in towns along the route of the A414, as well as measures to make walking and cycling more practical and schemes to tackle congestion hotspots.

Public transport schemes in the delivery plan include:

• A new bus and coach interchange near Maylands business park in Hemel Hempstead
• Bus priority lanes on the ‘Magic Roundabout’ in Hemel Hempstead
• A bus lane on Cavendish Way in Hatfield
• Improved bus services between London Colney and St Albans
• Improvements to Hertford Bus Station
• Upgrading bus stops across Broxbourne borough
 

These plans will help to make sure that bus travel is an attractive and practical option for people trying to get around our county. Hopefully it will encourage many people not to rely on their car for essential journeys
