As from today, the Accrington bus station is open.

and ALL of the bus companies are to use it.
They held an "Open Day" last Thursday, did YOU look round? What did you think?

As a driver, it will create a few problems. L.C.C. have thoughtfully put in a Drivers Room for us - They also have a ruling that no bus will be on the premises for more than 5 minutes

At least drivers are not being charged for using the toilets (unlike the passengers)

All we have to do is queue up at the information desk, obtain 20p, go to the loo and wash/dry hands! Ah, even that might be a problem, we only have a max of 300 seconds to allow our passengers off and ticket those getting on, we (or the company) are likely to receive a reprimand should we exceed this time limit

Does anyone live near to the bus station and have a large parking area outside their house? I am in need of somewhere to park my 32 ft. bus at lunchtimes with adequate toilet facilities and with close proximity to food stores etc

Good or bad, we are stuck with it
