My service 5 pulled onto stand "I" this afternoon because the 7 arrived early so the driver pulled round to where the Arriva office is and didn't come back until it was due away from the stop. Also service 14 pulled in on an angle so it was partly blocking the road.
Also I got off the X66 on Tubwell Row this afternoon and trying to get from one side of the road to the other is a nightmare because all you can see is buses on the stands because there is too many services using the same stands, you can't see anything until you are in the middle of the road and then have to swiftly step back before you get hit by the car that you couldn't see, one day someone (probably me) will get run over there because its a flaming mess.
Sort things out Darlington Borough Council and stop pretending things are fine by making statements like "our recent stand changes have now improved traffic on Prebend Row making it safer" when all they've done is make Tubwell Row even more dangerous than it already was by moving the traffic from Prebend Row onto Tubwell Row, and almost one month since a bus ploughed into stand "I" it has still not been repaired and has metal fencing around it which looks lovely. When will someone see sense and sort this mess out.
