Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Been seeing loads of ideas about Stagecoach services so why not try and make some changes as I'm bored tonight.
6 - Withdrawn
7/8 - Current route from Metro Centre / Newcastle until Kenton Lane then do the 32/32A loop around Kenton every 30 minutes
18 - Current route to Freeman, doing loop around Dovedale Gardens extended to Kingston Park via 7/8 route until Ponteland Road then 6 route until Windsor Way doing the X34 loop in the opposite direction every 30 minutes
38 - Extended to BT Call Centre every 30 minutes to replace 18.
32/32A - Current route until Cowgate Morrisons then 87 route until Station Road (loop opposite way) at Newbiggin Hall then Station Road (Bank Foot Metro), Tudor Way, Windsor Way, then when it's open (new road) to Great Park every 30 minutes. (in partnership with Nexus merging the M71)
73 - Current route until Westerhope extended to Callerton omitting Newbiggin Hall (replaced by 32/32A partially) every hour.
As someone said the 6/7/8 is pretty much two routes in one so might aswell split it and create some actual useful links:
Kenton to Kingston Park
Elswick and Benwell to B&M/Lidl, Westerhope and Kingston Park
Great Park to Kingston Park (M) and South
Byker / Heaton to Gosforth
North Longbenton quicker service to Newcastle and Freeman
Callerton (new houses) an usable bus service.
Westerhope to Kingston Park an usable bus service (hourly services are useless).
The PVR should be decreased if I'm right or close since the 6/7/8 is dropped from every 20 minutes to 30 minutes throughout.
