Temporary Road Closure of North Bridge Street Bus Lane on Sunday 16th October and Sunday 23rd October 2016
Sunderland City Council need to close the bus lane on North Bridge Street to perform essential utility works.
The works will take place from 0800 – 1800.
The closure will affect North Bridge Street in a southbound direction (bus lane) and services heading northbound will be reduced to a single lane.
All southbound services heading towards the Wearmouth Bridge will divert as follows
Services 3, 4, 13, 16 and E2 – at the Wheatsheaf junction, they will divert along Roker Avenue, Church Street North and Dame Dorothy Street.
Services 23, E1 and E6 – will also divert Roker Avenue, Church Street North and Dame Dorothy Street, omitting Dundas Street.
Although services will be diverted from usual routes, they will observe all stops along the length of the diversion – Roker Avenue (Salvation Army), Church Street North and Dame Dorothy Street.
Clearly, whilst we will be endeavouring to operate all services through this area in accordance with their published timetables, there is nonetheless the potential that some trips may be subject to delays.
Stagecoach would like to apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause and we remain grateful for customers’ patience and understanding.

**UPDATE** - Please note that the traffic management on Holmeside will be removed after working hours tomorrow (6pm onwards on Friday 4 November 2016) and two-way traffic flow will resume until early next year (dates to be advised)**
All buses will revert to normal routes Eastbound via Vine Place, Holmeside and John Street.
All Westbound services will continue to operate via Holmeside and Vine Place as normal.

I know work before was for the new college but now its open etc, I've seen nothing
What are they actually doing?, i was in the town today and seen no workmen on the road...
I think it's because of the big work lorrys parking up at the side of the road, going in and out from the access road to the college from holmside, probably because of health and safety as if u have lorrys parked on one side then buses would be delayed trying to get passed on the other side of the road and cause traffic jam, noticed the lorrys parked up Tuesday gone when I was in the town

(08 Nov 2016, 9:20 am)ifm001 Used to be an X24 express from Sunderland to Newcastle back in the 1990s but I'd be suprised if that was being resurrected. Any hint of frequency at all?

(08 Nov 2016, 10:15 am)Michael At a massive guess, i would say hourly to start off with.Are you still thinking it will commence in the city centre or is the number (X24) a hint of location ie Thorney Close, which would go with the routine of serving non metro locations.

(08 Nov 2016, 11:15 am)Michael I thought it was said before that it wouldn't go Via Boldon.

(08 Nov 2016, 10:55 am)Michael Not sure now, in all fairness, Stagecoach haven't had a service like this for years, so it could start anywhere, still think they would want it to start in a area which will allow them to get a decent amount of passengers though....
Route example could be:
Thorney Close Shops - Grindon - Hastings - A19 - Newcastle
To me, the only competition would be around Grindon/Hastings Hill as they have the 2/2A to the Galleries then the X1 but i think if people notice that the X24 (we shall call it that until confirmed) will be a lot quicker.

Where do u think it will start?

Don't look at those changes yet, have a feeling Stagecoach will launch a surprise on us by end of week
