Grimston Road Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP)

Norfolk County Council is asking for feedback on proposed changes to Grimston Road on the approach to Knights Hill Roundabout, as part of Norfolk County Council's Bus Service Improvement Plan. 

Our proposals would improve bus journey times, punctuality and reliability with minimal impact on other road users.

What are we proposing?

Grimston Road would see accessibility and safety improved. Currently, on Grimston Road there is no safe area to use the bus facility or cross the road. So, we are proposing to build new foot paths linking the Knight's Hill Hotel & Spa and Rising Lodge Farm Shop to the new bus stops and crossing. Our proposed dedicated turn into the Rising Lodge Farm Shop will enable a safer entry point and will reduce congestion related to vehicles waiting to turn into the shop. 

How to comment

To find out more about the proposals and the reasons behind them, please visit the survey page. This consultation begins on 4 November 2024.

Large print and alternative formats are also available on request by emailing TfNorfolk@norfolk.gov.uk

Next Steps

The deadline for comments is Monday 25 November and we will carefully consider all responses ahead of any proposed advertisement of the formal notices needed to deliver the project.

This webpage will be kept up to date with the latest progress and information.
