North East BSIP: £804 Million Pound Plan For North East Buses
North East BSIP: £804 Million Pound Plan For North East Buses
(19 Mar 2024, 11:56 pm)Storx Aye totally agreed, but imo the 25 should be the one serving the QE. Just makes more sense really, I'm not sure the likes of Portobello enjoy a massive detour going around Harlow Green etc serving nothing at all. I'm not sure they enjoy a detour of Birtley to then follow the same route as the 28 to get to the QE either.
They should just go back to the way it was for years with:
24: Newcastle to Wrekenton via Harlow Green
25: Newcastle to Langley Park via QE
82: Birtley to Washington via Ayton, maybe extended to Lansbury Drive
50: Direct from Rickleton to Washington
It's just 4 routes that have been messed around with and all 4 are worse imo.
Just don't see why the 82 needs to exist beyond Birtley personally, when you've got the 28 and should be 25 serving it instead.
Save money the 28B though, it's a just a PVR 2 doing that route.
