East Lothian Council is seeking views from local residents on the possibility of creating Journey Hubs across the county.

Journey Hubs are transportation centres which provide public transport and shared transport interchanges, alongside other facilities such as cycle parking, seating and waiting facilities, transport information and more. They connect different types of travel in one place, making it simpler for everyone.

The establishment of Journey Hubs has the potential to support moves to a greener, more connected East Lothian and make it easier to get around the area without a car.

They can help link public transport with bike parking, shared mobility, and more. They can include facilities providing up-to-date travel information, shelter from the elements, and options for car sharing or bike sharing.

Have your say!

The council has launched an online survey through its consultation hub https://www.eastlothianconsultations.co.uk/infrastructure/journey-hubs

The survey will close at 5pm on Monday 9 October 2023.
