It's easy to see how a breakdown could potentially cause kayos. I seem to remember looking at the original plans a while ago and there was a couple of spots that looked to be able to allow 2 buses to layover on each side, these seem to have disappeared.

The new bus station will not open until June of this year with the council blaming unforeseen circumstances, a test drive of the new station was carried out by stagecoach park and ride and a national express vehicle, it was mentioned that the test was a success however it's been rumoured the park and ride struggled to deal with the Curve in one go! Interesting times ahead, the identity of bus operators a has not been released
