The X47 should do the same loop around the western part of Great Park, but in reverse.
No idea, I am however sick of the usual council planning permission incompetencies when all they check is if they can get refuse collection vehicles around and not PCVs.
I have however driven around tighter on other service routes with other operators in a range of vehicles, so ideally there should be enhanced route training on how to negotiate such turns and spaces.
