Mill Road Bendy Buses

Morning Insider,

I was wondering where all the bendy buses from the Mill Road P&R disappear to after matches?

I tend to arrive at Mill Road shortly after it opens and there are always 3 or 4 bendy buses sat waiting at the bottom of the hill with a couple of your bog standard size to ferry supporters to the Amex.

After the final whistle there rarely seems to be more than one modern bendy bus and 3 or 4 regular buses (of various vintages) serving the route back to the P&R, this results in the queue moving amazingly slowly as the smaller buses fill up quickly and then take a much longer to drag themselves up the hills to the car park and back. Do the club not book the use of the larger buses for the whole afternoon/evening?

Cheers

They are used after the matches (usually we have 6-8), and always have been. However, as they are so long, during the games we park most of them at Mill Road, there isn't the room on site. At the final whistle they drive to the stadium & pick up. If you leave early you probably get on one the small single deck buses that are parked on site during match.
