group. In Cambridge, Maidstone and many others, you park for free and
It also makes boarding the bus quicker, as people don't need to get a

enter the car park one or two at a time, you are spreading out the ticket
buying over the waiting time, rather than everyone getting one at the same
time (when they board the bus).
