The only viable option was to install a fixed bus stop outside the local shops on Dunthorne Way, Grange Farm.
The new bus shelter is part of a range of measures including installing double yellow lines in the vicinity of the bus stop. The outcome is reduced risk to school students, said Mr Nolan, who is pictured with Councillor Zoe Nolan.
