Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - April 2015

Another suggestion would be:
2 Blyth to Morpeth
X14 Morpeth to Newcastle
X14 Morpeth to Newcastle
2 Morpeth to Blyth
This would allow for bigger buses on the 2 which I think it needs. To replace the Kirkhill-Morpeth section a half-hourly Kirkhill-Lancaster Park service would be introduced, using MPDs.
Then, I would propose this for the 1/20 services:
-1 increased to every 15 minutes between Ashington and Blyth, and 30 minutes between Blyth and Amble.
- 20 withdrawn, replaced with improved 1.
- 1 decreased to every 30 minutes between Ashington and Wansbeck due to low passenger numbers.
- Improved service for Cresswell, Hadson and Amble.
I don't think there is much through traffic on the 20/X20 so I think this could work well?
Not sure what could happen with the 57/57A as I can't find a decent way for them to interwork.
