Hi Richard,

Aside from the Casino shared stop, there is one in Malvern Road but it is
the only one I know on this side of town. Of course at the separate but
close by stops, people wait for the tram at bus stops. I have some sympathy
for them because although the signs say Transdev and the route number, it
is not terribly clear that they are bus stops. One passenger who I waited
for to run from the bus stop said, you need to tell your managers that this
is a problem, haha, as if they would take notice of me. Better that
passengers make the complaint.

Buses using the tram tracks in Queensbridge do cause problems. One bus
nearly hit my tram when I was leaving the Flinders Street stop where the
buses move onto the tram track on Queensbridge, and if you have two buses
in front of the tram with one turning left from Queensbridge Street into
Power Street and one going straight ahead, well once I was significantly
delayed.

Enjoy your weekend.

Andrew.
