7 FOOTWAY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR BUS STOPS EASY ACCESS KERBING 7.11 Special kerbing (See Photos band 7c) has been designed to improve access for bus users as well as providing docking guidance for vehicle drivers in order to minimise the horizontal separation between the bus and the footway. It allows the vehicle to make low speed close contact with the kerb in a parallel direction without causing damage to the tyres.Where possible these kerbs should be used as part of a comprehensive whole route treatment, for example, on Quality Bus Corridors.
