North Somerset Council (NSC) is looking to strengthen some key areas of the local commercial bus network by making available 'kick-start funding' to be used to provide new or enhanced services. This approach builds on successful kick-start projects that have been delivered within North Somerset in recent years.

NSC has £150,000 which is intended to kick-start a commercial enhancement of the existing bus service provision on the council supported route in Weston-super-Mare from West Wick to Weston Town Centre via Locking Castle and Flowerdown Retail Park

The £150,000 will be made available to fund the successful proposal(s) over a minimum period of one year. One of the key aims of this investment is to kick-start a proposal that will become commercially viable beyond the funding period.
