It's not very often I see someone who doesn't have their coins ready to purchase a ticket. What is a problem is stops such as Eyre Street where the driver can't see passengers waiting on the platform because of another bus boarding and he drives straight past. Perhaps stops that have multiple services using them should have the bus automatically pulling up to the platform. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what she is saying is that every bus should stop at every stop if more than one route uses it. Not sure where "platform" comes into it.
