NOTE ON TERMINOLOGY
8.7 There is some disparity between the terminology used in Northern Ireland and that used in other regions of the UK. For example,‘Bus Bay is used in Northern Ireland to denote the rectangular carriageway markings alongside a conventional kerbside bus stop. Elsewhere, the same term can refer to a bus stop set into a recessed kerbing.This is usually known as a bus lay-by’ in Northern Ireland.

CARRIAGEWAY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR BUS STOPS
8.8 To avoid ambiguity, this guide has used the Northern Ireland meanings i.e. –
‘Lay-by’ - refers to a recessed kerb layout
‘Bus Bay - refers to carriageway marking in front of conventional kerblines.
Double bus bays should have a full length of 23m – i.e.;
10m prior to entry taper and 5m after the exit taper should be kept free from parked cars.
