of different organisations involved who have responsibility for disseminatingpublic transport information, demonstrates the need for the variousorganisations to come together and speak with one voice where agreementcan be reached.7.5 Summary an d recommen dations7.5.1 The best way to achieve the recommendations outlined in this report is for apartnership organisation to be formed. It is recommended that differentgroups would be best set up on a geographical basis to reflect the differentorganisations on different sections of the study area and to keep the numberof stakeholders down to a manageable level. These partnerships shouldcommunicate with each other on a regular basis – indeed some of thestakeholders will be common to more than one partnership - to shareknowledge and ideas.Doc No 3 Rev: B Date: November 2008 157G:\Final Report Web version\CTR-ADA Study Report Rev9.4. doc
8 Conclusions8.1 Con clusionsPotential rural car-bus interchange sites8.1.1 There is limited potential to use rural car-bus parks as interchange sites forpeople to park their cars on and transfer to buses for onward travel. The mainconstraints are lack of spare capacity at the car parks, landscape designationsaffecting most of the potential sites, the frequency of bus services that wouldserve the sites, the challenges in promoting the sites, and the lack of securitycould dissuade visitors from using them.8.1.2 Steps should be taken to consolidate and broaden the role of the existing Park& Ride sites in Lyme Regis. In addition to the Park & Ride buses that serveLyme Regis itself, interchange to the service X53 (and, at Charmouth Road,service 31) which pass the sites should be promoted. New bus stops would berequired and bus operators would need to be persuaded of the advantages interms of extra patronage of serving the interchange sites. In the case of otherrural car parks, they should continue to serve their current purpose and highquality information on local pub lic transport services be displayed withprominence and clarity along with information on walking and cycling routes.Bus services to serve camping and caravan sites8.1.3 Many of the camping and caravan sites in the study are well served by busservices, particularly the large sites. Many of the smaller sites are not wellserved by bus services but the dispersed, geographically remote locations andlow visitor numbers make them in general difficult to serve more effectivelywithout significant subsidy8.1.4 There are however several medium and large camping and caravan sites whichcan be provided with better public transport access. Whilst practicaloperating constraints and commercial interests limit opportunities to re-routebus services, that there are many sites where installation of additional busstops would improve access at relatively low cost. These sites weresummarised in Table 3.3.Increasing the frequency of the CoastlinX53 servicewould also enhance the public transport available at many accommodationsites.Doc No 3 Rev: B Date: November 2008 158G:\Final Report Web version\CTR-ADA Study Report Rev9.4. doc
