Tees Valley Bus Network Improvement Project will improve bus services by reducing journey times on the following roads for buses, with benefits for other people using these roads; The Inner Ring Road, North Road, Woodland Road, Yarm Road

It will also help improve other bus services in the Borough. This will be achieved by making improvements to the bus network in Darlington including; Junction improvement work, Bus Priority measures at a number of junctions and New Bus stops with improved accessibility

In addition a range of other measures will also be introduced including; Improved journey information with an increase in the use of real time information displays at bus stops and Ticketing initiatives.

Outline scheme proposals for the work to be carried in 2010 will be available for inspection and discussion at the Talking Together event. Views expressed at the event will be taken on board when developing the detailed design work.
