This forum is consistent for trying to find problems to fit their hypothetical solutions. As someone who does use the 6/7, I can confirm there are plenty of people who travel from, say, West Denton to the Freeman. Hub and spoke models have been proven to be a false economy. We should have more orbital routes, not less. There’s no need to force everyone to change buses in the city centre (or indeed the proposed ‘Kingston Park loop’), which invariably both takes longer and is more expensive.
