Whilst the location is much more central, I too wonder how loadings will be managed at busy times. I have only ever used a Megabus service once from Liverpool One and that was at 6am one summer's morning. Even then the driver was keen to get loaded and out as quickly as possible as there were already a fair few service buses vying for space.

As for the design of the building, enough said. Obviously the architect was sitting in a warm office when he designed this wind tunnel. For years, passengers were forced to wait in the open on Brownlow Hill, Liverpool One is only marginally better.

As a matter of interest, how many daily departures are there on a normal day from the current Nat Ex station?
