I went to college in Durham and was there literally every day between Sep 2016 and Jun 2018 – can't remember a single time having to around the station 3 or 4 times before we reached a stand. It's not that bad?

People walk in front of all the stands, not just L, and some just cross between the stands to get to the bus before everyone else because they're ignorant tossers.

Personally, I think the council should have bigger fish to fry than the state of the bus station. I mean, have you been to the bus station in Peterlee? There are currently 3 or 4 windows that were smashed in weeks ago. Council can't be arsed to fix them and for good reason: because the charvas are just going to smash them yet again on their Friday night ASBO rounds.

Durham might be a small city, but pretty much all Arriva services pass through it so it's always busy.
Granted, the time we had to go round 3 or 4 times it was exceptionally busy, but it's not unusual to have to go around at least once.

The issue with walking in front of stand L is that there isn't a stop after it. The buses are parking on the corner, I see it happen very frequently, obviously drivers don't want to drive around so they just set down on the road and let passengers off.
