8. Meeting Another Person
Nick: Excuse me, I’m sorry to interrupt, but I heard your conversation. You’re going to Khaosan Road and you want to save money?
Beth: That’s right.
Nick: There’s a new bus and it goes direct to Khaosan Road. It costs about 200 baht to take a taxi, but it only costs about 70 baht on the bus.
Beth: I see. Thank you for telling us.
Nick: You’re welcome. The bus stop is at the front of the airport. I’ll show you. I’m going to Khaosan Road too.
Beth: Ok. Let’s go.

Hi, I would like to appreciate you for providing this site. It is really interesting and useful.
I just have a question, Is it incorrect to say “The bus goes ‘directly’ to * road”.
