I like this idea but you would have your 32 go on shields road twice in both directions, which would justbe confusing for passengers unfortunately.

(20 Dec 2021, 10:11 am)Dan The days of direct bus services here, there and everywhere are gone. Operators had already started to move away from this in favour of the hub and spoke model, but now Government guidance reiterates this, I cannot see it being likely that any operator would extend a service on an already heavily over-bussed corridor.

And therein lies a major part of the reason a good majority of people will never switch (willingly) from their cars.

What about routing it down Algernon Road/Denmark Street,then Heaton Road,that eliminates it going on Shields Road twice,Nexus could easily install bus stops incase there isnt any

What route would your 64 take?

Maybe a new 64 could do West Denton - Stamfordham Road - Silver Lonnen - West Road - Westgate Road for Central Station - New Bridge Street/Manors - Shields Road (Morrisons) - non-stop to Wallsend High Street - non stop to Four Lane Ends - non stop to Killingworth Bus Station?

Your 14 sounds like a good idea for Go North East. 22 could do West Denton as you suggested, removing the need for the 12, which could terminate at Slatyford as my 1 would terminate at Benwell so a 12 service could replace that.

18/18A can't be withdrawn apparently, but could maybe be improved.

32A should be withdrawn. 32 doesn't really need to run.

39 I doubt will ever go to Wallsend, although I think it should and the 40 could be extended to Hadrian Park maybe?

Since you keep wanting to change around services in Walker area and people wanted to get arid of the 18/32/32A personally I'd look at something like:

12 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then Union Road, Welbeck Road, Monkchester Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
13 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then 18 route to Walker Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
14 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then Shields Road, Sprogg Road, Welbeck Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
32 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker extended to Four Lane Ends via 18 route.
39 (Every 12 mins) - Current 39 to Walker, continue onto Walker and 12 route back to Byker.
40 (Every 12 mins) - Current 40 to Byker then reverse of above.

32/32A East of Byker withdrawn partially replaced by 14 and covered by Q3 in other areas.
40 East of Welbeck Road withdrawn replaced by 12/14.
18 East of Byker withdrawn covered by 13 and Q3.

I'd like to see the 32/32A withdrawn and replaced by a 23 between Newcastle and Hadrian Park. 30/31 runs Newcastle - Benwell - Fenham anyway.

Service 1 might need rerouting in Slatyford when the roundabout at the end of its route is turned into a junction.

71 should run from town and current route to Westerhope but extend it to Kingston Park Shops replacing the M71 and creating a new direct link.

The 84 should be operated by Stagecoach and serve Metrocentre in both directions.

(31 Dec 2021, 1:36 pm)Storx Since you keep wanting to change around services in Walker area and people wanted to get arid of the 18/32/32A personally I'd look at something like:

12 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then Union Road, Welbeck Road, Monkchester Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
13 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then 18 route to Walker Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
14 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker then Shields Road, Sprogg Road, Welbeck Road and continue to Wallsend via 12 route.
32 (Every 30 mins) - Current route to Byker extended to Four Lane Ends via 18 route.
39 (Every 12 mins) - Current 39 to Walker, continue onto Walker and 12 route back to Byker.
40 (Every 12 mins) - Current 40 to Byker then reverse of above.

32/32A East of Byker withdrawn partially replaced by 14 and covered by Q3 in other areas.
40 East of Welbeck Road withdrawn replaced by 12/14.
18 East of Byker withdrawn covered by 13 and Q3.

Why would the X63 not go to Killingworth? Surely it’s the fast route to the City Centre rather than going via Byker.

Conversely why would anyone route the X47 through Gosforth instead of the direct route it takes through Cowgate?

X77, X78, X79 and X87/X88 link with the 6 to Kingston Park. 47 used to run via Gosforth/Regent Centre to Kingston Park years ago.

X63 doesn't need to serve Killingworth, there are so many buses in Killingworth and we are meant to change buses in town apparently.

22X and X39 will likely be withdrawn because of the death of the Cobalt.

X63 is a faster version for anyone from Newcastle to Killingworth who use stagecoach

Cant see the X39 being withdrawn neither the 22X

X63 could possibly be extended futher say to Cramlington see if it would attract anymore customers (just a suggestion)

The 47 used to run in a loop around Gosforth and back into town with the 48 running in the opposite direction through Cowgate (or vice versa). Tbe direct link between Kingston Park and Newcastle always remained. I don't envision cutting the current link and forcing people onto the 6 to transfer onto another bus, which in the case of the X87/X88, would mean standing at a bus stop in the vicinity of Harehills Avenue (which isn't the nicest place to wait) is going to be popular. In fact, it's the sort of decision which will make people ditch the service completely in favour of the car or Metro.

I'd like to see the 32/32A withdrawn and replaced by a 23 between Newcastle and Hadrian Park. 30/31 runs Newcastle - Benwell - Fenham anyway.

Service 1 might need rerouting in Slatyford when the roundabout at the end of its route is turned into a junction.

71 should run from town and current route to Westerhope but extend it to Kingston Park Shops replacing the M71 and creating a new direct link.

The 84 should be operated by Stagecoach and serve Metrocentre in both directions.

What would run via South Benwell?

There's no need for anymore buses between Cramlington and Killingworth, there's already 5 buses an hour which is too much as it is. It would just end up being a slow X8 or a duplicate 42/52/53.
