@ScottishGreens As a former bus driver... this is a tremendous policy! So much time was wasted at bus stops selling tickets one-by-one to passengers. Prepayment, contactless payment, and free travel passes were all big improvements over selling tickets for cash, but "bus arrives, some people get off, some people get on and find a seat without delay, bus drives on" is the absolute gold standard.

Combine it with enforced bus lanes and bus-priority traffic lights and you get much more consistent running times - and from there you can get a much faster timetable that doesn't need to accommodate so much variation!
