Call me nostalgic but I miss the old bus station.

How we ever went from a proper terminus which allowed for traffic to run normally whilst buses parked up to a bus stand that hasn't even a siding is beyond me...

Marge was keen to remind me at her committee`s meeting (Neighbourhoods n somat) that the Old Bus Station "Didn`t belong to HBC" but to United Buses.... maybe i shouldn`t have reminded her of the £4 Million spent on the Transport Interchange.

Correction - I've just been down for my morning paper and there is a siding. Well... Half a one anyway. Just long enough for one bus and wide enough for half of one. No surprise I've missed it every other time

There's a pattern developing here. Public bodies from councils to hospital Trusts telling us they've made things better when to the public they haven't.

I don't think people think that when they knock places down like the old bus station they also take away a lot of memories.

Talking of busses, from what I have seen the free bus wouldn't have generated a penny more if they had charged a fare, should rename it the ghost bus.
I am sure that will be hailed a success too.

Any feedback about how busy it was ?
