Sorry, this just doesn't look safe:

It wasn't safe. Eventually all of these ''safe boarding areas'' had a raised concrete platform added.
Notice that you had cars passing in front and back of you whilst standing in the ''safe'' zone.....dreadful. Imagine standing there with several children and your shopping packages or seniors and handicapped.
