Connecting People and Places – West Northamptonshire

This webinar is part of Better Transport Week 2026, and explores how West Northamptonshire has worked with local bus operators, neighbouring authorities, and other stakeholders to develop the local bus network.

Bringing together perspectives from local government (West Northamptonshire Council) and the main operator of local bus services (Stagecoach), it will provide an insight into how the bus network is being developed with some of the challenges. The webinar will also include input from GO Travel Solutions on the work they have been undertaking for the local authority, to help influence the development of the local bus network, through bus engagement studies across West Northamptonshire.
