Crewe bus station in Crewe, Cheshire East, England, is a planned bus terminus for approximately 11 bus services. It is forecast to open in May 2024 as part of the Royal Arcade development in Crewe town centre.
The bus station is located on Delamere Street, with access also from Victoria Street. The bus station is planned to have 9 bus stands and 1 coach stand, although no scheduled coach services are currently planned for the bus station.
In September 2021, planning permission was granted for the Royal Arcade development,[1] with Phase 1 incorporating a 400 space multi-storey car park and 10 stand bus station. Following initial delays, in January 2023, the former bus station closed and a temporary bus station was placed, containing 8 stands, in the location near to the new bus station.
Cheshire East Council revealed the external artwork design for the new bus station in February 2023,[2] which was subsequently placed on the eastern elevation of the new bus station, overlooking the new bus stands with the words ‘Forged by Hand’ sitting atop the bold inclusion of the town's name.
