1Excuse me, could you tell me which bus goes to the railway station?

2Yes, the number sixteen goes there, but it only runs every half hour.

3Oh, that is a long wait. Is there another bus that leaves sooner?

4Well, the twenty three leaves in five minutes, but it stops near the hospital.

5That is fine, the hospital is close enough. Where do I catch it?

6From stop B, just across the road, next to the coffee shop.

7And how much is a single ticket to the station, please?

8It was one pound eighty, but it went up to two pounds last month.

9I see. Can I pay by card, or do I need cash?

10You can pay by card on the bus, or buy a day ticket online.

11Great. And how long does the journey take at this time of day?

12Usually fifteen minutes, but with the roadworks it could take twenty five.
