The Large One
Who's Next?
I just phoned Brighton & Hove Buses to find out what exactly was meant by 'allow extra travelling time to get to the match'.
North Street is closed in both directions from 6.30 to 7.30pm, thanks to the Burning The Clocks parade, so the buses going from the City Centre to Withdean will turn up Queens Road, turn right down North Road and left into London Road, before continuing their normal routes. A normal service is expected, but there may be some delays on account of the fact that North Road won't be able to accommodate buses in the same way that a supposedly car-free North Street can. (That last sentence I'm paraphrasing from the what the woman on the phone said).
Coming home... "Brighton & Hove Buses will lay on the same service as for any other match".
Bugger. Unless the club has organised some more...
Still, at least we know now - despite the despicable concept of it eating into valuable drinking time, I suppose I could walk.
