Go North East: Service Suggestions v2
(13 Sep 2022, 6:25 pm)Storx I know what your saying and don't disagree per say but nothing works with each other so they're just compete against each other. Old Durham Road is a bad example btw as it has a destination on it (The QE) so there's a point of them.61A route would be better than the current 61.
A good example though would be the Great North Road in Gosforth with the 43/44/45 which is similar to the Seaham services but they all interwork with each other so provide a 7.5 minute (normally) for the core section of the route then split out further out to different places.
If you could get it work you could easily do it with the 60/61/??. Not sure what that other service could be but PVR wise it would be roughly the same. For the majority of the route you'd improve the service from every 12 minutes to 7.5 minutes throughout taking pressure off the 60 and getting needed passengers on the 61 which is clearly struggling. Everything just fights over the top of each other and there's very little connection.
Isn't the 61A subsidised to cover the 12 which doesn't run in the evening by Stagecoach.
