Are London's 'floating' bus stops safe or scary?

Available for over a year

Love them or loathe them, 'floating' bus stops have become a distinct feature of London's infrastructure in recent years. The design, which has a cycle lane between the stop and the kerb, is intended to allow bus passengers to get on and off safely while cyclists can continue moving. But many have questioned the safety, particularly those who are disabled or visually impaired. Well now, campaigners have welcomed the government's decision to pause the rollout of one type of so-called floating bus stop, but said "it does not go far enough". 91福利社 Radio London's Aaron Paul has been finding out what's going on.
