TravelBuses often get held up on Stainton Way, causing traffic delays. Every day, more than 1,300 students travel to The King’s Academy, and we want to make it safer and easier for them to get to school, especially when crossing the road. Stainton Way via Dalby Way is also the entry to the Parkway Shopping Centre, a busy place with shops, leisure facilities and community services. This brings even more traffic to this area, with lots of people using this route every day.
To improve safety and give people more travel choices, our plans propose to:

It is difficult for people to walk or cycle on Stainton Way as there is no pavement or cycle track between The King’s Academy and Dalby Way. This makes it challenging for students and families without a car to get around and leads to more people driving, which adds to congestion.
We want to create a safer route for students walking to The King’s Academy and for those without a car who want to access Parkway Shopping Centre.
Improvements to this route will allow more people that live in these areas to consider walking, wheeling or cycling especially on shorter journeys. Bus improvements will also be made allowing for buses to be more reliable especially during busier times
Key opportunities to improve this route include:
These changes will make it easier and safer to get to King’s Academy and Parkway Shopping Centre, give people more transport choices and encourage healthier ways to travel, like walking, wheeling and cycling. Importantly, offering people more travel choices will reduce traffic and pollution, especially during peak times.
