Your correspondents must have all the time in the world to get from Brighton to Eastbourne on the 712, particularly between Rottingdean and Newhaven (Letters, August 11).
Have they ever counted the bus stops in Telscombe and Peacehaven? There are about a dozen, with some only a couple of hundred yards apart.
If the driver stops at every one and takes fares from every passenger, the journey can seem to take for ever.
What is needed to encourage more bus use along this road is an express service, with only one stop in Newhaven, Peacehaven, Telscombe, Saltdean and Rottingdean and then non-stop to the Palace Pier.
