Re: The new bus station and parking areas

The old Peel Street Bus station had more than twice the capacity of the new design and even that design required buses to be scattered around onto Melbourne Street and Infant Street. Back then there were only 3 operators, if I remember correctly Accrington, Ribble and Rossendale. Now you will have more operators using far fewer stands and can only result in even more chaos.
The old bus station wasn't a perfect design by any means in fact, it was downright dangerous having passengers walking between the buses but it should have given the 'experts' a few clues about the capacity of it's replacement.

How can the Council have passed a design which even a simpleton like me can see is totally wrong in many respects?
