104) New Bus Station - Station Road

Yes, it's not just the railway station which has been built anew. The second part of an overall plan to create a transport hub in the centre of town here is the building of a new bus station to replace the old one - pictured here - Old Bus Station . 

As you can see, it seems to me to be nearly complete. There are posters in the billboards by each stop - mind you, they have been there for a while now. I will be honest, I don't know exactly when it's going to open. Work began on 3rd October last year, and was only scheduled for about 12 months, so it can't be long now, hopefully.
