Important update: From Wednesday 2nd April all passengers travelling with mobile phones will be required to turn them to ‘airplane mode’ or completely off to enable our latest traffic light change technology to work correctly on all buses. Thank you for your cooperation.

Nice to see that Arriva can be bothered with dumb April Fools gags but can't be bothered with service updates? Isn't the A174 closed at Loftus? Doesn't this affect people traveling on the 5 to Easington and 4 to Whithy? It's not as if any diversion takes a few minutes.

Was on the BBC Local News several times this morning, closed in both directions between North Road and Dam Street. Just spoke to the driver on the 1000 X4 and it's open! Sorry Arriva and thanks for your PM Scott.
(31 Mar 2014, 4:59 pm)Roland Pratt Are you joking? From coaches to DP Omnicities to Temsas?!
(31 Mar 2014, 8:12 am)tyresmoke Was on our chassis wash on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. Should be going back to Ashington once they pick it up I guess.
Temsa 4702 was also in our yard on Friday afternoon

This is one reason not to travel Arriva to Scarborough? The squealing brakes on this thing - 7494 - are appalling! No good on the climbs either? She's right down the box on Yearby Bank!
Nothing like a ride on an Ommnicity, especially with a driver whose up for it! 4652 has just left the Bus Station (1115) on a 5 trip to Easington. Shame we ain't got a fleet of these.
(01 Apr 2014, 9:31 am)tyresmoke Should be sticking with Omnicities on there, along with the X26/X27 as mentioned previously.
Further to this, I am told 7484 is due to go to Redcar and 7488 should be transferring down too.

1301 has moved to Belmont depot, and was operating Service 64 today.
On VOSA today.
PB0002717/256 - ARRIVA DURHAM COUNTY LTD, 1 ADMIRAL WAY, DOXFORD INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS PARK, SUNDERLAND, SR3 3XP
Variation Accepted by SN: Operating between Durham and Hartlepool given service number 57/57A effective from 04-May-2014. To amend Route.
7501 back at Whitby on X93 has it been swapped with a B7 thats actually meant to be at ashington I wonder ( 7501 at Whitby temp in any case)
Yes, agree with what Roland said about the Ommnicity, just a shame the one's we have on our - Teesside/East Cleveland - routes are in the hands of Arriva.
