The opening took place last Friday with members of the Plymouth Military Wives Choir and local councillors cutting the ribbon.

Plymouth Citybus' Managing Director Richard Stevens said: "The opening of the new Travel Centre is a big step forward for us and the city; we have brought our retail outlet to the forefront of our operation on Royal Parade. We have also maximised the building's capacity by moving our employees' rest facilities from the tired Bretonside site to the upper floors of the Travel Centre".

    “Would have been good if the Herald has said where it actually is in the city centre on the off chance someone wants to go there!”

    “@Waltersmith

    It has it's downside. With the driver rest facilities above the shop, Royal Parade may well become clogged with empty buses as the drivers nip in to the toilet or grab a sandwhich.”
