RE: Liverpool City Centre bus re-routing proposals
The logic of a London style one route per line thing wouldn't work in the hub. It's too small. It is 3 spaces side by side with another 3 spaces behind. Can hold 6, plus 2 in a row on the street (not a problem on this one as the rear bus can easily get out) If only 2 or 3 routes had layover in the hub that would be fine and easy to organise, however a lot more than 3 services layover in the Queen Sq area, hence why there are buses parked in empty bus stops, on double yellows, and on Victoria St outside the Shankly Hotel most of the time. Then after 9pm the Cross Rivers don't serve Cook St and then finish at Whitechapel, so they've got to squeeze in too. It's very rare I use the hub full stop except late at night when it's quiet, I prefer to hide on Dale Street somewhere out of the way. And yes reverse horns can be turned off easily for exactly this reason, however the general rule is no reversing without a banksman and the unions probably wouldn't allow it. |
