RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Cock Robin - 22 Jan 2015

(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.

It doesn't matter if the bus station isn't right next to the shops. The buses could still pick up at the shops stops but would layover in the bus station instead of on the stands. As was always the case.


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Jimmi - 23 Jan 2015

From Sunday 15th February, we're making some changes to Services 7, 15, 63 and 81/81A in Teesside.

These changes are primiarly to improve puinctuality and come from feedback recieved from our passengers.

Service 7
Service 7 will see a revised timetable, but buses will still operate up to every 10 minutes, Monday to Satuday daytimes.

Service 15
Most Service 15 journeys will be revised to depart from Stand 24 in Stockton High Street around 2 minutes earlier than they currently do now. There are no other changes to route or timetable.

Service 63
Most Service 63 journeys are retimed around Redcar Centre, to improve punctuality.

Service 81/81A
We've made some changes to both the morning and early evening timetable in order to improve punctuality.

Presumably because of congestion thanks to Stagecoach putting their 36/37/38 on the 15 stand.


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 25 Jan 2015

What changes are going to be made in Northumberland and North Tyneside in March?


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - omnicity4659 - 25 Jan 2015

See the VOSA changes earlier in this thread, Davey.

Not actually - to give more layover time at the Castlegate end of the High Street for driver changeovers. Samething with the 7.


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 25 Jan 2015

No, I meant does anybody know the details of the changes yet?


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - omnicity4659 - 25 Jan 2015

Davey, if you're wanting route and timetable changes, I and the supervisors at Ashington don't know yet.


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - tyresmoke - 25 Jan 2015

One thing I have heard is that the 306/308 will have a timetable change on a Sunday, and that they will interwork (which will obviously see Jesmond working 308s and Blyth 306s)


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - omnicity4659 - 25 Jan 2015

That'll see 35 and 306 StreetLites visiting Blyth over a week! Wink

This is where he heard it from Dan!


RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 25 Jan 2015

I wonder whether or not Jesmond will just use 7445, 7446 and an Ex London Gemini or ALX400 on a Sunday with Blyth supplying the other 4 or 5 vehicles. A Streetlite would struggle with demand on the 308 on a Sunday and even the 306 can get very packed towards Tynemouth on a Sunday too.

Anywhere to put 6 nearly new B9TL's then? X18 anyone? Tongue

Out of interest (to anyone who can answer), why is there two registrations for the X93 a week apart?

A week? You need your eyes testing.
The 23rd May was to be the summer extra journeys registered on a separate registration, now cancelled of course.

Would this of been a new timetable, or are they scrapping the service?

EDIT: Whoops! All of the post turned bold!
