(03 Dec 2014, 9:30 am)Scott Correct me if I am wrong, but the silver arrows are currently 2A and 2C, so why not change them to 2A and 2B.

- I agree with Michael, why couldn't they do them in order, it's so bloody confusing!

Go North East:
Services #57 and #69 are diverting away from Keir Hardie Avenue and Ellen Wilkinson Estate due to parked cars.
Due to an incident at Westminster Avenue in North Shields, service #80 is diverting via Norham Road.
Needed to be in Newcastle this morning, so went to the stop for the 4, planning on connecting to an X1.
The journey takes about an hour, including connections.
Today, from getting to the bus stop to getting into Newcastle, it took an hour and a half.
Traffic wasn't bad when I was on either bus, loadings were decent - but both were 5 mins late when I boarded them.
No dramas.
It happens.
The X1, which was 5mins late on boarding, lost an additional 8mins at the Galleries - following a driver change over and a long queue of passengers getting on.
Obviously since services in Washington were condensed, the X1 is the only service that links the Galleries to Newcastle,
The queue of people don't have an alternative, so an ever expanding queue builds up for the X1.
On leaving Gateshead, two vehicles were following each other (carrying nowt but fresh air - but still in service).
One was on time (it being the run in front of us), the other 10mins late.
Anyway, got into Newcastle just under 15mins late - which by my reckoning, left a canny gap between the late running X1 I had been on and one of the vehicles we had seen in Gateshead.
Has anybody seen durham county council new website with their latest updated bus mapping section.I like how you can zoom in and look at your stop and see what services stop there.
Any body got any feedback comments, I perfer the old style with the bus route numbers along the road

@Davey
Just one legged it at the last min.
The majority had a ticket/pass of some sort already. Guessing they were (apart from conc passes), commuters or students.
Either way, the majority will have travelled to the Galleries on another bus.

Although I also miss the map with the service numbers showing the route the services follow.
