FAILED: Bus and Coach turnaround in Clyde Street

The Beagle Editor,
 
It appears Eurobodalla Shire Council has done it again.
 

 
The newly constructed turnaround bus bay in Clyde Street is apparently not sufficient for large coaches to turn around without doing a 3 or 4 point turn.
 

 
This is a safety issue and may cause coach services to look for an alternate bus stop in the CBD.
 

 
This may impact certain long distance coach services as well as coaches for the MV Merinda
 

 
Eurobodalla Council received funding from Transport for NSW.
 

 
Will they now give it back for failing on the brief.
 

 
Now anything over 8.8m can't turn right off Clyde Street into North Street and has to drive along Orient Street.
 

 
Time for a new bus bay? How about we have a master plan for Batemans Bay for a start.
 

 
This council has no vision at all public transport as proven once again.
 

 

Above: The councilors should go on a bus trip down Clyde Street and see for themselves what they have created.
