How ridiculous. The fact that so many people want to alight at the stop outside the North Western Hotel indicates that there is a demand. I suspect that most people who alight there want to catch a train from Lime Street. If this stop is no longer observed the alternative will be to alight at the top of London Road or Queen Square, having sat on the bus for an extra five minutes. Removing this stop will have no beneficial effect on the traffic flow.

The fundamental problem with the traffic flow in the Lime Street area is the awful road layout after the Big Dig in 2008 where three lanes of traffic now converge into two.
