Floating bus stops are found across the UK, with a high proportion in London. Following concerns raised by some customers, Transport for London published a safety review in May 2024 that found the risk of injury at a bus stop bypass to be low. However, it is now beginning a programme of remedial works in partnership with London boroughs. It is also carrying out a design review in consultation with stakeholders representing disabled people and active travel groups to identify what further changes and enhancements could be applied to improve the accessibility of bus stop bypasses. The department is working with Transport for London with the intention that the lessons learned are applied nationally.
