Stagecoach North East: Upcoming Service Changes
Christmas Camel Procession in South Shields Town Centre on Friday 5 December 2014
We have been advised a Christmas Camel Procession will be held in South Shields Town Centre on Friday 5 December 2014.
Last Updated: 29 October 2014 6:07 PM
To ensure health and safety is maintained, a number of roads in the town centre will be subject to a ‘rolling road closure’ between approximately 1700 - 1900.
The parade will commence at the east end of King Street, and proceed via King Street, anticlockwise around the Market Place to St.Hildas Church.
During affected times, buses in all directions will either wait behind the parade, or will be diverted away from the affected roads. Because of the impact on traffic flow, all bus services may be subject to delays, and may be unable to temporarily observe their normal stops along Chapter Row and Church Way.
Customers are therefore recommended to use the Keppel Street bus stops near South Shields Metro Station.
Although our local authority colleagues will endeavour to ensure that the impact on bus services is as limited as possible, Stagecoach apologise for any inconvenience or delays that this parade or the necessary diversions may cause, which are due to circumstances beyond our control.
Services Affected: 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 12A, 17, 18, 30, E1, E2, E6, X20
