An aspect of this will be the Saturday service/80% running that is currently happening along with it being lockdown so most buses will be arriving spot on time so will have longer to wait in town.

I have no doubt that when this latest lockdown ends, the vaccination programme is proving effective and passenger loadings get back to near normal later this year, the bus strategy for the city centre will prove to be totally inadequate and I suspect that the powers-that-be will attempt to resolve the inevitable gridlock that will ensue by limiting the number of buses that will be allowed to operate within the city centre.

However, I do not foresee any restriction on the private motorist as these generate profits for the numerous car park operators and the city council.
