Northbound bus stop, on Billington Road, opposite Pages Park
Reported via desktop in the Bus stops and shelters category anonymously at 15:02, Sunday 7 September 2025
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 427309.
There is no bus stop flag, sign or marking for the northbound bus stop on Billington Road, opposite the entrance to Pages Park. I had to persuade the driver of an X4 bus to stop here, because there was nothing to show him that there was a stop there. It is not clear where boarding passengers need to wait to board a bus.

Hello D***
This has always historically been classed as an unmarked bus stop, the reasons for this I dont know, but we can plan to put in a new post-flag and timetable case, but it wont be actioned straight away.
Ill try to supply a temporary stop, Ill see if one can be located here until the permanent solution is actioned.When we schedule these works, we try to ensure we have a full days work for the contractor, to minimise costs.
I will liaise with Arriva and highlight that the location opposite the shelter is a stopping point, hopefully they will pass that on to their staff.
Kind regards
D**** S*****
