RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - F114TML - 27 May 2023

(27 May 2023, 8:46 am)Unber43 Pretty sure it has like 4 mins at Thorney Close and 2 mins at Dene Estate which isn't enough.

Also its quite a hard route to make up time when running dead especially if you get a changeover
Currently 9 mins at Thorney and 4 at Dene Estate. I've been on 23s that have bunched up - most recent was because I left the depot some 8 minutes late and picked up two bus loads of schoolkids from Dene Estate, but by the time I got back to Dene Estate I was on time. It seems to me to only really bunch up if it's got a particularly slow driver on, or there's been a problem somewhere.

Also the route takes 71 mins round trip (without layovers) at every 15 mins it will have 4 mins, 2 mins either end. SC Sunderland reliability will hit the floor
If it's 71 minutes running time round trip, then it will surely be a 90-minute total round trip on a 15 minute headway (6 buses rather than the 7 used now on an 84 minute round trip).

(26 May 2023, 10:26 am)Michael Bustimes.org are indicating timetables from "2nd July 2023" on the 10/11 and 20 in Sunderland - but still shows current times.

Example: https://bustimes.org/services/10-pennywell-grangetown-2?date=2023-07-02

I wonder if that means the new timetables will be uploaded in the next couple of days?

Looks like the new timetables for Sunderland are on traveline, if you change the date to 10th July, found it by typing in the service number.


New X24 timetables includes a Sunday service.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Unber43 - 28 May 2023

every 30 mins aswell

Ye, I wonder if they're taking a risk, due to the £2 single fare being extended?

About time.


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Busu284 - 30 May 2023

Stagecoach SF1 will run from Newcastle Monument (I'm guessing Blackett Street) every 5 minutes starting at 22.00 and running till 00.40 to Kingston Park Shops on the 10th June


RE: Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Acky81 - 03 Jun 2023

I’m guessing the open top service 19 from the north estates to seaburn seafront won’t be returning? Shame as it seemed to do well

Doesn't look like it, the open tops look be allocated to the E services now.

Cant see anything obvious, except that the 13A appears to have gone from the 13 registration, so either back to two x 13 per hour or hourly 13.


Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes - tyresmoke - 10 Jun 2023

58A is cancelled in the Teesside area too… not too surprising as they barely carry anyone and never have. I’m amazed they’ve lasted this long!
I’ve not heard too many things about what could be coming but I’d be expecting some frequency cuts to remove buses from the network. I’ll be honest I was expecting the 35 to go though!
If the 13 is cut to hourly then maybe it’ll be extended to Coulby all week as per Sunday’s given it’ll have a spare half hour in the round trip?!

But Ben Houchen has went public saying only Arriva are the ones making cuts. Are we suggesting a Tory is not being completely honest within his public statements!?

Fixed it for you. 

We all know how well Stagecoach have done out of Houchen's tenders. It will be interesting to see what happens with this service...

He not giving away land at Teesport again is he?

I do wonder what the logic is with the open toppers.  If they are using them on the Es you'd think they'd aim to get them out on sunny weekends but all just sat in the depot yesterday

Same, its decent today, yet not one of them is out.

Wouldn't be surprised if they go, when the changes happen in a few weeks.


------------
I take it: 39716/17/23/26/30/31/32 will all be withdrawn on the 2nd July.


I take it, the first of the gas buses will also go, alongside 28016?

Does anyone know which company has bought them?, apparently most of them have been sold already.

You seriusly think they would withdraw the 35? Have you seen the ammount of kids that get on it ti go to school ?

That's just one AM and one PM trip though - the rest of the day, it's dead. Understand the rumour is it will go hourly - as will the 13, which will be extended to the Parkway Centre as well. 57/58 are rumoured to be dropping to a combined 15 minute frequency all day rather than just on afternoons as present (likely to result in an all day interworking pattern with the 52 once again), the 59/61 rumoured to be dropping to every 20 minutes (loadings haven't picked up on that),the 10 and 34 interworking will be dropped due to timekeeping issues (mainly with the 34). The biggest shock of the rumours is the 12 - dropping from every 12 minutes to every 20 minutes.

Any idea of the plans for the 39?
