The new bus station in Kingston on Thames has drawn mixed reactions, with complaints about seat orientation, design, material choice, and shelter reduction despite some improvements.
While the new design provides more roofing area for bus stops, critics note that the seat layout has decreased, reducing the overall seating available for waiting passengers.
The tree-like roof structure enhances aesthetics and allows natural light in, contrasting with the old heavy supports, indicating an effort to modernize while retaining functionality.
Despite the criticisms of boring design, the integration of water permeable paving and the abundance of bins shows an effort towards sustainability and convenience for passengers.
