Bridge street has always been bad too, even before the road was changed.
Indeed, the biggest factor, which councils fail to react to is cars on the road. A fix five years ago is now overwhelmed. Bridge Street is a disaster for public transport, council should ban all cars and taxis from that area, force them to use alternate routes, yes that puts pressure elsewhere, but sometimes only one bus can get out in the stupidly short cycle, and the right turn off St. Mary's is often fouling the path.
Suggestions of X24 using Kyall Road and Hylton Road probably won't happen so expect big delays on that route
