Bus Stop Bypass
A cycle lane which passes behind a bus stop creates in effect a bus stop bypass, enabling cyclists to continue pass a stationary bus away from the traffic lane and makes it possible to provide continuity for segregated cycle lanes. |

However, the bus stop bypass layout should seek to minimise the potential conflicts between cyclists and bus users crossing between the main pedestrian footway and the bus stop bypass.
TRL has been asked to carry out a trial to investigate how different layouts perform under different flows of pedestrians and cyclists, taking particular account of pedestrians with impaired vision or mobility.
