Thanet Bus Strategy
In July, 2000 a Quality Bus Partnership was signed between
Thanet District Council, Kent County Council and the major local
bus operator Stagecoach in East Kent. The Partnership aims to
increase local bus usage by 3% per annum, year on year, over a
ten-year period commencing in 2000.
Kent County Council published its Bus Strategy for the County in
July 2001. The Thanet Bus Strategy is intended to complement this
document and to explore the local needs and challenges of Thanet in
greater detail. In developing this strategy, Thanet District
Council is aware of the need to co-ordinate its bus strategy with
those of neighboring Districts, particularly where services cross
District Council boundaries.
The intention of The Thanet Bus Strategy is to present a ten year
plan which, if achieved, will lead to an improvement in the
quality, reliability and perception of bus services in Thanet. This
will include measures to enhance information, infrastructure and
vehicles as well as the actual service delivery.
