On the other side of that argument, I hate waiting at Regent Centre. That really doesn't feel a safe place. The stairwell to the car park is disgusting too.
Have to agree to disagree then, hate the place personally at night. Feel really enclosed and the place is hostile as an understatement. Can't stand the walk into the place either past where Lloyds used to be, very very dark and I know there's been trouble in the past along there.
I'd much rather get a bus along Blackett Street or Market Street, if I had the choice personally.
Regent Centre isn't great either mind, I'd argue that's the sort of place there actually should be a decent waiting space as you can't time buses using a Metro.
Bus stations in town/city centres are a very British thing, I can't think of any off the top of my head in any European city, bar for coaches.
