I would imagine something integrated into the base of a building on their current site, an entrance off west bound bow trail and an exit on to east bound bow trail and with the main portion of the square footage required wrapped around behind other retail units (sort of a T shape, with the bus access across the top of the T and pedestrian access at the base of the T), as well I would guess that they could put a new freight facility in either the Manchester or Highfield industrial areas to deal with the dedicated freight that moves out of the current terminal, and then any freight that needs to go on a bus simply gets shuttled up to the terminal
