I understand that at some stops it may not be possible due to the length of the raised curb etc, but surely in a situation like that or for quicker boarding at high capacity stops like bus stations (where its not front boarding like Gateshead) they should just use them? It would make total sense.
You can't use the middle door at all at certain bus stations aka. Durham, Eldon Square and Consett, which are no doubt the problem stations here, because the middle door is in the middle of the road.
If I know disability laws it's a legal matter nevermind poor service unless they provide an alternative and being told to wait for the next bus isn't that alternative
It's also not really quicker as it's confusing for most people. They shouldn't be in service full stop imo.
