Summary
This latest consultation followed on from a previous survey last summer. Then we asked you to tell us about problems and opportunities related to bus stops, park and ride facilities and existing bus priority measures, such as bus lanes, and potential bus priority options along the four corridors. Consultants considered this feedback and came up with a series of options we'd like you to consider. -
This consultation was part of a study called the Midlothian Orbital Bus STAG.
We worked with the regional transport partnership for South East Scotland, SEStran, and commissioned transport consultants AECOM to complete the study.
The Midlothian Orbital Bus STAG, which is funded through Transport Scotland’s Bus Partnership Fund (BPF), was being undertaken in accordance with the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) process.
