Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Some suggestions for services across South Tyneside & North Tyneside.
1: The section between Coach Lane and Cobalt will be withdrawn and replaced by new service X21.
10/11: These services will be reduced to operate every 60 minutes, and will additionaly no longer serve Cobalt. The Low Simonside to Jarrow section will retain 2 buses per hour with the introduction of service X21 which will offer faster buses to South Shields, aswell as offer daytime buses to North Tyneside.
X21: This new service will offer new frequent daytime links between South Tyneside and North Tyneside. The service will combine with service X20 to offer 2 buses per hour between South Shields and Primrose, and services 10 & 11 between Low Simonside and Jarrow.
The extension to North Tyneside will see the withdrawl of the 1/10/11 sections at Cobalt, although connections to these services will still be available by connections on the X21.
Service X21 will offer a faster alternative for passengers who usually take the Metro or Ferry, and will even serve the major business parks along the way...
