Public consultation on the change in bus stops on Miramar Ave. Looks like both lots of parking will be removed from BOTH Pharmacy's to make room for the buses... thoughts?
These will be double length bus stops (30m) to cater for the increase in bus traffic right before each of the pedestrian crossings.
The No. 2 bus will be every 5-10 mins weekdays with other 7 bus routes adding to the frequency (Think absolute peak will be a bus every 2 to 3 mins).

Also traffic resolution for Strathmore Avenue, Raukawa Street and Morgan Road.

Please submit your feedback via the online WCC submission page.
