(10 Dec 2021, 1:38 pm)Keeiajs Due to it being Boxing Day, most buses aren't required they could stick buses with amenities on them to try and keep passengers or get more for GNE.

Rationalisation, partnership & collaboration is the order of the day in the brave new BSIP world.  On street competition is dead, or on its death bed at least.

I never see the point in running the 43 and X10. Might aswell run the 43 between Cramlington and Newcastle and extend it to Blyth via the X10 route. 

There's barely any difference in times 7 mins or so I believe and they duplicate each other. 

Much rather see either the X7 or X22 run which would provide many areas without any service a bus (Seaton Valley, Burradon, South Beach (no 309). The x22 between between Bedlington and Ashington.

That's arriva for u though. They make the strange decision for Boxing day services like the 52 used to run from Newcastle to Killingworth. The Annitsford to Killingworth area has nothing through on Boxing day

X21 has always been the stronger route out of the 2x routes.

I can see that the 306, 308 and 311 have been coordinated to give a 20 minute frequency between Coast Road /Station Road and Haymarket.

Only change I'd suggest for Boxing Day schedules would be to change the last 311 to be a 306 (terminating at Billy Mill) but additionally serving Hadrian Park.

Shame there is once again no service to Cobalt Business Park when there is still staff who work on these days as businesses such as EE who I work for are a 24 Hour Operation every day of the year.

Could easily extend the 311 from Hadrian Park to do a loop around the business park.

Yeah I know, it was instead of running duplicates on the 43/X10 corridor have both services running rather than not having the X21 running. They're pretty much different routes through out and it would be the next busiest service other than the X7.

I agree about the 43 & X10. If NUFC were playing at home, I'd say yes but a normal Sunday? An hourly 43 extension to Blyth would suffice.

Cobalt on-site staffing levels are at sub 20% of pre pandemic levels. The vast majority are home working or hybrid. And with the recent government mandate, I can see why there’s no service. There just isn’t demand.
