The current frequency is every 8 minutes (2 hours to get back to an on-the-hour departure) so I would imagine every other journey coming into the Metrocentre would do the S1 loop providing they are planning to keep the 15 minute frequency which is likely.
But there is also the increase to the PVR at certain times, regardless of any delays to the service when it scoots around past Asda or Ikea.
A delay to the S1 has far fewer implications than a delay to the X66.
