The bus station is also in a very odd place and
seemed to be rather poorly used (considering
it serves such a busy town) when I passed through it.

A bus station is a glorified turnaround layby, and there is no reason why
the public should be using any bus station in significant numbers.
Richmond
is probably the only bus station in London which is in the right place,
because it is well away from the high land values around the station.
Nothing is more ridiculous than wasting valuable land next to a train
station to park buses for 20 minutes, when there could be a traffic
generator there instead.


You don't think placing a bus station next to the raqilways station would be
a better option to improve modal interchange?
