Arriva's service 23 was running approximately 15 minutes late (arriving into Park Lane at roughly 16:15), with two Go North East service 60s, one Go North East service 61 and one Go North East service 42 entering soon after it. A free-for-all was had for the stands.
On the other side of the station, everything seemed to be running in twos. All at once; service 73, services 2A and 2C and services 8 and 78 tried to occupy three stands - blocking a service 35, service 20 and service E2. Oh, and two B9TLs on service 56 blocked off service X36 too - but this wasn't a major issue, as service X36 would have been stuck behind the aforementioned services anyway.
That's why i think that where stands H, J and K are, they could of being moved down more at the bus station when it was designed, complete nightmare sometimes at that end of the bus station.
I don't like where stands A-G are, not sure on reversing out, its not bad when it's quiet but when its busy and 5/6 buses come in at once.. different story.
Could they not move the 8/78/78A to stand H or V, then that way stand K is free and won't cause any back ups.
