Essex County Council are preparing to launch their annual bus survey to gather public opinions on the bus services in Essex and identify ways to improve them to encourage more people to use buses. They aim to hear from both current bus users and non-users to understand how we can attract more people to use bus services in the future.
The online bus survey will be available from 2nd June to 30th June 2025. The face-to-face survey will take place from 16th June to 27th June 2025 at the following locations:
- Basildon
- Billericay
- Chelmsford
- Colchester
- Harlow
The bus survey will be advertised on electronic displays during the survey period (2nd June – 30th June 2025). A flyer is attached to this email.
ECC will share the survey with all Parish, Town, and District councils and publicise the survey on the TravelEssex website and their social media channels.
Here is the link to complete the survey: Essex Bus User Survey 2025 - Essex County Council (Please note this link will be active from 2nd of June).

Essex County Council (ECC) have responded to the letter that the Parish Council sent in regards to the closure of the B1019 (Langford Road) for a 6 week period. In our letter we asked for:
- The full traffic management and diversion plans,
- Any emergency services access and response strategy developed for the duration of the closure,
- The risk assessment documentation for the closure.
In response to 1. The full traffic management diversion plans, they confirmed they held the information requested but cannot currently provide this due to an exception in the Environmental Information Regulations as the information is in the course of completion and currently unfinished.
In response to 2. and 3. the response was that there is no provision for emergency services access as during the road closure there will be no road space available for emergency vehicles. Additionally the risk assessment document has not yet been recieved.
The full response from ECC can be read here.
Update 08/05/2025: A further response was given from ECC's customer services. The respone can be read here.
