Bus Service Improvement Plan Consultation: Bournemouth Travel Interchange to Town Centre

This consultation has now closed.

You can read the consultation results here.

The BSIP Consultation for Bournemouth Travel Interchange to Town Centre has provided an invaluable insight into the improvements required along this key travel corridor. Following the support received for many of the measures, detailed designs are now being drawn up based on these requirements.

Residents and businesses will be able to comment further on these designs when the Traffic Regulation Orders for the proposed changes are advertised (scheduled at present for late Spring 2025). Once plans have been fully agreed we anticipate works on the ground will commence in Autumn 2025.

Many thanks to everyone that participated in the consultation, as feedback is invaluable.


We asked the public and key stakeholders for their views on proposals for the bus route from the Bournemouth Travel Interchange (bus station at Bournemouth train station) to the town centre. These were developed from the valuable feedback you gave us during the Bus Back Better Consultation in 2022 and with further work we have conducted as part of the Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) for the BCP Council area.

Your views are important to us and will help to shape the detailed design stage. Please note that, no decisions have been made at this stage and will only be made once your feedback has been carefully considered.
