That just fuels my concern that they'll be trying to squeeze more buses into roads that already have problems, with the added "bonus" of a free circular sightseeing tour all around the outside of the centre, with correspondingly increased journey times for those who need to cross.
With regards to having several small, separated, bus stations, one of the reasons I go into the centre is to change buses, so forcing a change of bus station as well will certainly help to discourage bus use!
