Some interesting new services coming by the looks of it, although quite a few with only 1 bidder.

Write down if the services are late , terrible times to run and other inconvieniancies


Eg:

935 Sunderland Park Lane - Witherwack Estate VIA City Centre , Chester Road , Pallion , Hylton Retail Park , Laburnum Grove , Hylton Castle Estate and Downhill Kingsway


What on earth are these runs ! According to google maps from Wiltshire Road Turning Circle the 935 run 5:41 and 6:41 in the morning !

Seriously what !

start one.

Former Redcar Pulsar 1440 has turned up at Milton Keynes presumably to cover for the vehicles going to Silverstone.

Just seen this on Durham Council facebook page:


Getting to and from a County Durham retail park will soon be easier than ever, thanks to a range of transport improvements. ?️
The North East Mayoral Strategic Authority has provided £3.2m, via the council, for the delivery of the Dalton Park Transport Hub and Active Travel scheme.
The project, delivered by Dalton Park Outlet & Outdoors, will see reduced journey times, ease congestion and create a smoother, more enjoyable experience for visitors once delivered.
This will be through:
▪️ A new road layout and road widening, meaning buses will be able to travel through the site instead of turning at one end as they currently do.
▪️ The creation of new lanes, which will ease congestion and improve bus journey times.
▪️ Increasing the eastbound bus stop in size to accommodate three buses
▪️ Two new stops to the south west, reducing travel distances for passengers and improving accessibility.
Meanwhile all bus stops will benefit from:
? New shelters
? New seating
? Real time passenger information displays
? Lighting improvements
? CCTV systems linked to Dalton Park’s 24/7 surveillance system and providing coverage of all waiting areas

So my mother lives in Forest Hall and we frequently chat about the new housing being built near Palmersville, they appear to be also widening the road from the traffic lights (that take you into Forest Gate), which leads me to ask, i wonder if the new widened road and new housing development will be linked at both ends, one end taking you to Great Lime Road, and the other to the new roundabout thats been built on the B1317 before/after the bridge over the A19, it also poses the question of if that if that is the case, if there will be the need for a new bus link

This is just a thread where you can jot down your ideas about former running routes.

Does anybody remember the old TB1


Cowan Terrace-Mariville West VIA City Hall , Roker Marina , Ashbrooke , Ryhope Village

Added due to starting services in the area soon.

May I suggest that any new members / non-established members to the forum have their posts moderated to reduce the amount of pointless posts / drivel and pointless / duplicate topics being created.

Thanks

Whitestar Travel have announced on Facebook that they have a few buses arriving for work at the end of July with the tag of #servicebus
