WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE BUS RIDE .
Not a long wait for the bus to arrive. Do take note that it's a double decker bus which luggages are placed below and passengers are seated upstairs. Bus is full so chances are you won't get an empty seat next to you. Overall a value for money and quick way to get to the city.
Easy to access and use.
A good service but a rail connection would be better and not subject to variable traffic conditions
