Bath City Centre Phase 2 Reduced Scope

The Bath City Centre project aims to reduce car dependency by improving infrastructure for active travel and public transport. It is divided into two phases: Phase 1 focuses on cycling infrastructure, while Phase 2 enhances bus journeys, particularly around Bath Bus Station, to improve reliability and user experience.
Due to early modelling showing delays from a proposed bus gate, Phase 2B has been removed, resulting in a £200k reduction in the Full Business Case budget. The saved funds have been reallocated to cover shortfalls in Phase 1, which recently received a change request for an additional £198k.
