Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes
Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes
(22 Jan 2015, 1:12 pm)John_R Although, I agree that the council is useless and hope they get voted out. Personally I'm glad there isn't a bus station at Feethams as it isn't really close to the main shops and would make the bus a less convenient option for many people. Also I'm sure many including my myself would prefer the cinema as it would save a trip to Teesside Park. Also they're just about to start building a multi storey car park at Beaumont St/Feethams which although is probably needed, it will undoubtedly be an eyesore.
Also its quite unlikely someone will be killed and given its now nearly 10 years since pedestrianisation was introduced, there has not been anyone seriously injured in that time - pretty much every town centre in the North East has a worse record, so it has done quite well considering its inevitable that there will be some collisions due to people just crossing without looking.
However they do need to move the stops back to how they were with North Road service outside Burger King.
To be honest the screens will benefit more people than a service to Brafferton or another outlying village.
