It has taken a very long time but we have finally been able to secure the funding for a new bus shelter in Ifield Village conservation area in Ifield Green. As well as the funding we needed to source a supplier of a suitable shelter that was in keeping with the conservation area. This proved quite difficult, and expensive.

We are now working to get bus stop markings painted on the road.

Ifield Councillor Peter Smith said: ‘It has taken several years for me to find the funds and secure this bus shelter for Ifield residents. The finished results look impressive and in fitting with the conservation area. I hope that the residents are happy with it!’
