Summary edit

Description

This is the new Warwick Bus Station.

Looking at (the clearly out of date) Google Maps, it used to be a carpark.

It opened on the 4th of November 2008.

The roads around here were being relaid at the time.

Warwick Bus Station

The new bus station was built by contractors McVeigh Construction on West Gate Car Park in Warwick town centre, offering greatly improved facilities for passengers and will mean that buses no longer have to do a loop through the town.

Detailed testing has been carried out at the site over the last two weeks to ensure the buses can negotiate the new bus station safely, and even working with a local group with mobility problems to ensure they can access the buses.

Cllr Martin Heatley, Warwickshire County Council’s Portfolio Holder for the Environment, said: “I’m delighted to see the efforts undertaken to ensure this project was completed so far ahead of schedule. These new facilities will bring tremendous environmental benefits to Warwick, getting buses out of the immediate town centre.

“The new bus station will make bus travel easier, and therefore provide a more attractive alternative to the car. It will also provide a more comfortable experience for passengers and improve the efficiency of the bus operations in the town centre.”
