But they'll have to loop the city to get to Albert Street won't they?

Well, kinda yeah, but they'll be coming from Priory Queensway instead
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Rumour has it the 61/63 will move to Park St. So straight down Moor St, through the bus gate turn right use the lay-by there for relief and layover then turn right then left back onto Moor St and out.

Ive heard that too, sounds like a good idea, relief point closer to garage.

And some nice grass area to sit round in the sunshine!!

And another layover point taken over...

I was thinking, next to the 17 stop on Moor Street there's a patch which is being used to store building materials. Could make a little interchange there...

That's a good idea, I've always which service used to make use of it and its good space which could be used for that.

Wouldn't that cause more traffic mayhem in rush hour?

Didn't consider that but it's indent in the road so providing the buses don't stack up, It shouldn't be a problem although thats usually far from the truth.
It's a good bit of space which isn't being used.

On a different matter, 801 looks like its had it's side display removed? I couldnt tell, but all I saw, or rather didn't see was a display in the window.

It was never working correctly in the first place.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

I know. ;) Perhaps it'll be replaced soon? I was slightly confused, until I realised it was 801. Haha!
