I applaud the sentiment, but it’s a park-and-ride car park served by buses. While it would be great if infrastructure was such that it was affordable and practical to exclusively use public transport, this was specifically built to stop people from driving into the city, reducing car traffic in the urban centre and improving air quality and general QOL for pedestrians.

Elena and Nicolae Ceaușescu were more or less equal partners in their despotic role over Romania, until their joint execution in 1989 during the Romanian Revolution.
It’s anglicized from Hebrew בַּיִת (house); there are a bunch of accepted ways to spell it, including “bet” and “bayt” as well.
Crassus’ lost legion is just conjecture, there’s no convincing evidence. It’s a fun thought, though.
Rabies is virtually eradicated in the UK. Bats and imported animals are a potential risk, but the chance of a squirrel having rabies is nearly zero.
