In most cases, buses may have to stop short or travel past the shelter, or at temporary stops, in order for customers to board or alight. In certain cases, buses may not be able to access the kerb line and may have to stop in the carriageway. In these situations, drivers will support customers as much as they can; please ask if you need any further assistance.
