Does the latter go to Milehouse as it's a Go-Ahead vehicle?Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09289456162510146247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11828686.post-67891194645171439002016-09-19T23:26:16.356+01:002016-09-19T23:26:16.356+01:00If you look back at the original artists impressio...If you look back at the original artists impression of the new coach station, you will notice that the boarding area appeared to be fully enclosed. The old bank building is the ticket office and the lower photo was taken from the doorway as you head towards the coaches. Mind the service road which you have to cross, there is no pedestrian crossing marked. Going back to the artist impression, what happened to the large overhead "Welcome to Plymouth" sign on the entrance road. I guess things changed in the interest of economy. I personally don't think the new Plymouth coach station is anything to be proud of and has the appearance of being a temporary stop gap. Plymouth deserves better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11828686.post-81785886457864762302016-09-12T20:06:11.616+01:002016-09-12T20:06:11.616+01:00Shame that this Coach station has had no thought, ...Shame that this Coach station has had no thought, unlike Exeter's Bus Station which will apparently have sliding doors to board the bus(a bit like an airline gate or some tube stations.) I thought the old LLoyds building was going to be a ticket office, or have the council been cheapskates on that too? So much for revitalising Plymouth, all they've done is invested millions in a coach station that won't work and give it 10 years, coaches will be using Royal Parade because the Brentonside site has been redeveloped! I would have rather seen the oldbus & coach station rebuilt and done up, that this piece of junk!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11828686.post-20307547402035498142016-09-12T06:56:56.600+01:002016-09-12T06:56:56.600+01:00You can guarantee that the architect never uses bu...You can guarantee that the architect never uses buses or coaches.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
