I perhaps deliberately ignored the (1)4x silliness, because you'd need
an entire bus station on its own to cater for those. The solution to
that is route tendering and simplification (e.g. send some through
services down the 50 route instead, and interchange at Parrs Wood) to
get the number of permutations down. I don't see why GMPTE should
fund a huge bus station to cater for the Oxford Road silliness, nor
why a large swathe of Manchester City Centre should be decimated to
cater for it.

No doubt there'll be some worthy words about it in LTP2. Lets see if
the PTE do anything although as it isn't a tram they probably don't
give a crap...
