Apply to temporarily suspend a bus stop

If you're undertaking work in or around a bus stop, you must request a bus stop suspension.

If you're carrying out other works alongside the bus stop suspension (for example, a road closure) you'll need to apply separately for any other appropriate highway licence or permits first or we will not grant the bus stop suspension itself.

Apply for a suspension by emailing [email protected].

You'll need to provide the:

• permit number
• date and time of works
• bus stop name or number (number should begin 'buc' or '040')
• location of the stop or stops shown on a map
• name of the utility company carrying out the works

You should provide as much notice as possible in advance. All works, except emergencies, must be booked at least 1 week in advance.

If approved, we'll send you a link to pay for the bus stop suspension.

This costs £101.00 per stop.

If you need to cancel or postpone a bus stop suspension, email [email protected].

You'll need to do this by 9am on the day the works were meant to start or the suspension will still be chargeable.
