Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
Stagecoach North East: Service Suggestions
(12 Nov 2023, 4:26 pm)Storx See if I was SNE and doing a route, if I can depending on the Cobalt funding situation. I'd be looking at splitting the 22 and sending half the buses along to either Whitley Bay or North Shields, depending how much you want to go into Arriva's 306 territory.
I'd be tempted to extend the 39/40 whichever one it is that goes to Wallsend through to Hadrian Park aswell.
It'll benefit your customers aswell with through links from Byker further East and with connections at North Shields to get through the tunnel, with the 317 aswell. Other than the Coast Road, you've pretty much just bullied GNE out of North Tyneside as there's only the 307/309 left with any purpose.
Can probably guess where I'd be going if I was Arriva and had drivers and buses spare aswell.
The 24 corridor in Sunderland / South Shields would be the other corridor I'd be looking at and dominate the South Shields to Sunderland flow combined with the E's
