To be honest I have never had an issue with them. Do they not have bus shelters in bus stations? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front forecourt would make a nice bus station. Would need work, though. The Liberation Station is an office/flats block above an enclosed bus station. A sensible solution, so obviously won’t happen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nellie Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 3 hours ago, Happier diner said: Personally i cant see why we even need a bus station. What a waste of money. Its not like the line up on Lord Street is not adequate if there were just some toilets and a departure/arrivals board. I agree. We've managed without one for c25 years. Why, when we have no money, has this suddenly become such a huge issue? And yes, I am an occasional bus user, and I have waited in those shelters on Lord Street. If I need a piss, or something to eat, I just deal with that before I go to catch the bus. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea terminal / government workers free parking! Hence why it is never rammed on weekends. It is the obvious and easy solution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We 'managed' because there was nothing else .... we had no choice. The bus 'shelters' are often full at commute time. Believe me its not pleasant standing out on a wet/windy December night waiting. Then sitting in wet clothes for the hour and 15 minutes it takes to get home! 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many bus passengers don't have control of their bladders. Either through alcohol or old age (and in some cases both reasons). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
