WQ.75/2025
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR INFRASTRUCTURE BY DEPUTY H.L. JEUNE OF ST. JOHN, ST. LAWRENCE AND TRINITY QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 24th FEBRUARY 2025 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 3rd MARCH 2025
Question
"Will the Minister advise what progress is being made with LibertyBus to introduce an East/West bus route serving the northern Parishes to improve connectivity and links with other routes without requiring travel through St. Helier , and if no progress has been made, advise why not?"
Answer
Establishing this route is one of my ministerial priorities.
I fully recognise the social benefits generated by improved connectivity and I am happy to confirm that a great deal of progress has been made on this route with LibertyBus as part of the work for the new 2025 Bus Operator Contract, which commences on 6th April 2025.
When instructed, this service will run as a pilot service until the end of the year, when it will be reviewed as any new route would be. This east-west route will connect the Enid Quenault Health Centre and Red Houses area with northern parish communities. The ambition is that the route will be introduced at the end of May when the new Summer Timetable is published.
