RE: Scarlet Band Motors - Jimmi - 17 Oct 2017
(17 Oct 2017, 10:53 pm)2bagstew Are they the old times ?
Same as now, just Peterlee Bus Station - Hartlepool has disappeared off journeys leaving from Durham.
BusTimes is indicating the same as Traveline although I think much of their data is from Traveline.
Scarlet Band Motors - Jimmi - 26 Oct 2017
Service changes from Sunday 26th October, including a few other notes to clear up.
58A - will now only operate between Durham - Peterlee Bus Station (in both directions), at the same times as present on this section.
88/104 - these services are to remain operated by Scarlet Band until at least the end of January as this was another contract postponed until the end of January.
110 - withdrawn.
112 - this service will be revised to run: Spennymoor - Ferryhill - West Cornforth incorporating the parts of Ferryhill the 110 currently serves. This service will run off peak only, interworking with services 111/115 using two buses.
113 - slightly revised timetable.
And of course, they gain operational of services: 7 (now 99), 52/725, 70/71/72 & 115 and lose Newton Aycliffe school service 879 to the Eden.

I still can't find the new timetable for service 58A, the 58A must be totally withdrawn?

Go down to the upcoming timetable changes part of the Durham County Council map and timetable page and click 58A and it shows the new timetable.

Seems as though it will omit Thornley to accommodate this - unless it's just been removed as a stopping point on the timetable!

Clearly DCC has just removed Thornley from the timetable on their site for no reason then! The Connect Tees Valley timetable does not show the service as stopping at High Shincliffe however (excluding the evening journeys which already did previously).

58A Evening Journeys are not shown as they now terminate at Peterlee. The overall timing are the same during the day

There'd be an outbreak of indignant tutting if it did!

All they have done to the 58 is to add High Shincliffe Village without adding any extra time but Durham being Durham there is no timetable on the Country Website.
North East Travelline is where I found the info.

I really don't understand this decision by Arriva. The 56 is regularly 10+ minutes late, so removing a literally 1 minute detour of High Shincliffe is hardly going to resolve the issue. Extremely short sighted decision making somewhere along the lines!
Glad the 58 has been rerouted though, so at least a service is retained through the village.

Arriva also said there’s was not enough people using the 56 through High Shincliffe

New stop timetables are up
And it's definitely not high Shincliffe delaying the 56.

Two buses going too Durham at the same time that will confuse folk.

That's always been the case, anyhow. Will probably turn out that the 22 arrives around 25 past the hour!
RE: Scarlet Band Motors - jimmoc - 28 Oct 2017
So will scarlet Band be keeping 104 and 88
Scarlet Band Motors - Jimmi - 28 Oct 2017
Current contract for 88/104 has been extended until the end of January, so Scarlet Band will operate it until then, anything after that will be dependent on who wins the tender when the new contract starts on January 28th 2018.
Same applies for the 700/701/702/703.
