Bee-friendly bus shelters coming to Derby
Bee bus stops
Some of Derby’s bus shelters will soon be replaced with new, eco-friendly alternatives. Around half of Derby’s 90 new shelters will feature Living Roofs – nicknamed ‘Bee Bus Stops’ – designed to enhance biodiversity, at no cost to taxpayers or the Council.
We have awarded Clear Channel a ten-year contract to replace, manage and clean the city’s bus shelters at no cost to the Council. Once complete, Derby will be home to the UK’s largest city network of Living Roof shelters, demonstrating our commitment to creating a cleaner, greener city. It is one of many steps being taken to help Derby respond to the climate emergency by cutting carbon emissions and improving biodiversity.
