A £60 million cinema expansion at the shopping centre means buses will be temporarily stopping and picking up close to the Brewery Tap pub.

The soup kitchen currently uses the pub’s car park to feed the most vulnerable people in the city on evenings and Sunday afternoon.

However, from December 1 its van will instead be operating from Brook Street Car Park.

The closure of the northbound side of the bus station is expected to last 18 months.
