It is a drive-in-reverse-out bus stop. This is the standard arrangement for bus stations where the buses only have doors at the front.
Please answer my question
Is it Victoria coach station and are you satan?

As the only Weezer album I have ever listened to all the way through, it has to be the Red Album then.

I’ve put n/a but the nearest tram stop is probably a 2 hour walk and ferry terminal a day and a half or so…
The hire bikes are like an hour walk to the nearest one but the e-scooters are about 15-20 minutes walk, so I’ve counted that.

Can I ask why there aren’t any seats or nice places to wait?
This looks pretty similar to Victoria when I was there, and for each door/bay there were 60ish people with luggage waiting for their coaches to arrive. The only place to wait was basically within the boundaries of those blue tiles.
I mean, fine for me to stand up cramped for an hour and a half waiting for a delayed coach, but I’m a healthy bloke travelling solo.
I could probably walk to a Croydon tram link stop in about an hour.
Local buses are not long distance coaches. Buses leave the station about a quarter full, and people have shopping but not luggage.
There are seven seats per bus bay here, and each bus has a turnaround of about 15-30 minutes.
There are plenty of seats to sit in given the passenger numbers and wait times. A lot of work went into making sure that the numbers stacked up.
It’s a warm, light and airy bus station. I think it is a nice place to wait for a bus.

The owner of Victoria has been wanting to redevelop it for years, so has just left it to fall apart a bit.
It’s a listed building now, too, so their dreams of demolishing it and sticking a residential tower there are unlikely to bear fruit.
Just saw a bus go past!

The listed building people are idiots
had to get two buses to the station because my mate lives in the middle of nowhere. woo, buses!
They used to use some of these on the longer routes here like Belfast to Derry but not anymore.
But Belfast now has a thing in the city called the Glider which is styled as if it’s a tram the way it’s all set up, but it’s just a bus. A bus pretending to be a tram. Very strange. Anyway the Glider is bendy.
