Bus station improvement schemes

A programme of upgrades is underway to either rebuild or refurbish the six main 'bus stations' within the County.

Mansfield Bus Station

This is the busiest bus station in the County (outside of the City of Nottingham) serving over five million journeys a year. The bus station was built in 1977 and is beginning to show its age. Proposals are in place to create a new bus station in Mansfield.

Retford Bus Station

This bus station serves the thriving market town of Retford. A major redevelopment scheme at Retford Bus Station has been completed. The new bus station became operational on 30 July 2007.

Beeston Bus Station

The bus station is at the heart of the town and over recent years Local Transport Plan funds have been spent upgrading the site including new kerbing and an electronic timetable screen. The further redevelopment of the bus station is now tied in with the proposals to extend Nottingham's tram network through the area.

Sutton in Ashfield Bus Station

The bus station is handily placed for the town centre and the Idelwells shopping centre. Potential upgrades to the bus station are currently under investigation.

Newark Bus Station

Newark bus station on Lombard Street is currently owned by a bus company and its future is tied up with major redevelopment plans for the Potterdyke area of the town.

Worksop

Improvement works were carried out in 2002 to imrpove the layout of the stops on Hardy Street. Options to provide a new bus station in the town are still being progressed in discussion with Bassetlaw District Council and the main bus operators.
