Doing that would mean there's no stops missed.

If they connect the estates then there's no need for lengthy loops, just running straight through.

That's essentially what I was meaning, possibly didn't come across that way with me terming it as a loop. I can't imagine it would add more than 3-4 minutes so would be achievable with only minor timing changes. 

In the plans, they are linked I believe.
