Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Following on from the discussion of a service from Hartlepool and Billingham to North Tees I've thought about re-working the Stockon - Norton corridor. Crucially I've tried to rework current PVRs rather than adding in extra resources which is unlikely to happen:
6 (Hartlepool)
Route to operate Owton Manor to Marina only. Operates every 15 minutes to provided a 7/8 minute frequency with revised 36/37 below. Service 7 becomes standalone.
36
Reduced to every 30 minutes throughout. Re routed 37 maintains current frequency on key corridors. 36 & 37 both extend from Hartlepool Town Centre to Clavering along current 6 route so northern parts of the town benefit from extended services.
37
Rerouted from Stockton. Along Durham Rd to North Tees, resumes current route through to Norton. Continues to Hartlepool along 36 route. Passengers in Roseworth now catch bus on the other side of the road to head to Stockton & Boro but all links and frequencies are maintained in this area.
The map shows how key corridors have frequencies maintained:
