(03 Jun 2017, 9:48 am)beefcake Council subsidies were withdrawn around March 2011, the evening 7 was introduced on a trial basis back in 2012, where services now run til 2200 Sun-Thurs and 2300 on Fri/Sat. A modified Sun-Thurs evening service 6 running between Clavering-Victoria Road was launched in 2014 with last services departing around 2145, but they went by the end of the year. Evening services would work in town, if the timetables were better co-ordinated to connect with other services, for example not leaving town until after the 36 has arrived from Teesside, but ultimately I can't se that happening
Thanks for clarifying. Knew it was around that sort of period, just couldnt remember exactly when.
The poor timetable co-ordination around evening services isn't unique to Hartlepool unfortunately.
Not sure why that's the case, as like you, I think they would perform a lot better if they were.
