Ashington Town Council is taking proactive steps to enhance local public transport infrastructure, demonstrating a collaborative approach with Northumberland County Council (NCC) to improve passenger experience and accessibility. On behalf of NCC, Ashington Town Council officers, Mark Air and Ryan Appleby, have successfully installed stand information at Ashington Bus Station, providing clear guidance for passengers.
Working closely with NCC’s bus ambassador, Bill Lynch, the council is developing a strategic approach to bus shelters across Ashington. NCC will provide user information, allowing a targeted strategy that prioritises the most frequently used bus stops, with a strong emphasis on creating accessible and comfortable waiting spaces for residents. In addition to shelter improvements, Ashington Town Council officers are committed to supporting the repair and upgrade of timetable cabinets. Leveraging their local knowledge, the council will work closely with NCC to review and upgrade timetable cabinets, ensuring these crucial information points meet the needs of local passengers.
