I'm currently compiling a list of north east bus services that have been reduced or lost following Covid-19. It's still a work in progress with a lot missing, especially Stagecoach, Durham, Teesside etc, so I would appreciate your help in getting a full and accurate list!  Smile

I don't think its fair to include some of the services on the list without stating whether improvements have been introduced to replace it.

For example, while the V9 has been withdrawn, it was replaced by the 47/47a. The extension and introduction of an additional service means that the frequency of buses between Chopwell and Consett has actually increased from hourly to half-hourly: a definite improvement over the previous offering.

Arguably this might represent a rare example of how a service has improved in recent times, however in the interests of balance and objectivity, it should really be noted on your spreadsheet.

That's one of the reasons why I've published it as it is to start a discussion that would bring up such improvements etc that would be included in the next version.

The changes, whether that be "temporary" or as a set of permanent changes, were in abundance as everyone will know. The meanings of such changes often get lost upon the next set of changes -  these are usually hidden in articles, deleted or lost within the depths of this forum. Some changes may have even gone unnoticed as some pre-Covid timetables aren't available online, so that's why I need comments to help build a better picture.  Smile

A really good idea.

Have you considered including commercial cuts, e.g. the GNE 71, even if the net result is that it becomes a fully secured service? Might be handy given what is going on in North Tyneside at the minute.

Presumably most of the Scarlet Band reductions, and the Go North East 239 for example, relate to Durham County Council contract changes?

I’m guessing some of the Scarlet Band ones may have been as a result of a driver shortage, forcing the council’s hand to revise the contract (either a reduction or a direct loss of the contract).

Don't know for certain but think most of the Scarlet Band ones are related to driver shortages, some of the contracts have changed operators, S1 > 42 was a permanent move although the rest were supposedly temporary, I remember Stanley Travel and JH Coaches covering the 47 for them at one point last year, Hodgsons were given Barnard Castle services 70/71/72/871 supposedly on a temporary basis but months later are still running these services. Ferryhill to Bishop Auckland section of the 113 was commercial as were the daytime 108/109 trips (I think?)

Only brought 239 up as it's on the list and there was a direct replacement as result of contract changes rather than being outright withdrawn.

Probably worth adding Arriva’s 86 to this list now facing withdrawal between Bishop Auckland and Toft Hill - a replacement contracted service will be operated by Mollys Taxis - part of the L&B group with Rural Link i believe!?

Believe it dropped from every 15 minutes to 20 minutes when it changed from the 61 to 9 but it may have happened before.

It was definitely every 15 minutes in 2015 though here's the timetable - https://www.northeastbuses.co.uk/bygone/...250115.pdf
