Arriva North East: Service Suggestions
Arriva North East: Service Suggestions
(05 Aug 2020, 7:38 pm)tyresmoke The 81 goes round the village I believe, which probably more than covers the requirement from Redcar.81 does serve the village plus stops on both ends so anyone who requires the 63 can just walk down the road. Although I've rarely seen anyone get on there

Service Suggestions for Darlington
Service 3/3A and 19:
The short journeys on service 3 from Darlington to Skerne Park and the 19 from Darlington to West Park be merged to form service 3B. These journeys already interwork, this would simply advertise the cross town connection from Skerne Park to both the General Hospital and West Park Hospital.
Service 4 and 9:
These services would be merged to form new service 9 from Minors Crescent to Springfield. Again these services already interwork it would simply be advertising the fact, promoting cross-town connections as was done with service 2 and service 11 in the past.
Service 8 and 12:
Extend the 8 hourly to Hurworth replacing the short journeys on service 12. The 12 timetable would be revised to fit around service 8 (due to the corridor with the 5/5a/7/X21) and the 8 and 12 would interwork using the same vehicles as now. An additional Pulsar may be required in place of a Solo and so a swap could be arranged with 1409 coming to Darlington in place of 2841. Again this would introduce new cross town connections.
Below doesn't take into account evenings & Sundays but will have a think. All journeys double deck operated.
PVR 306/307/308 = 10x
PVR X38 = 4x (or interworking with another Blyth 'X' service)
Service 306:
(19 Sep 2020, 8:34 am)V514DFT So no Arriva service for Battle Hill is what your trying to to propose?There's virtually no point of the 306 in Battle Hill. Most of Battle Hill can be easily accessed from Willington Square (Tynemet) & St Peters (shops).

I miss the days of the X36!
A direct link between Seaton Delaval/Seghill and Killingworth would be nice to have too.

(22 Sep 2020, 10:01 am)Storx I'm from Delaval and tbh don't really see the point in the 42, I'd never use it tbh and can't imagine many others would either. We have the 19/57/57A to Cramlington, 57A to Annitsford and never really had the need to go to Gosforth or the Regent Centre and the Bus/Metro route wouldn't be much longer.
If your interested for here the places that people want are the most in order of most moaned about: (All the villages are Seaton Delaval, Holywell, Seghill and New Hartley)
All The Villages -> North Tyneside Hospital
Holywell -> Newcastle
Seghill -> Northumbria Hospital
New Hartley -> Whitley / North Shields
Seghill -> Metro (not going backwards 15 minutes - (Not X7 diverted))
All The Villages -> Killingworth (But not the X7 diverted)
For your 53 extension I'd extend the 57A instead and you've fixed the biggest moan around here (or do the old 810/811 route and go up to Hospital roundabout and turn back then continue to Morrisons). Arriva used to serve Northumberland Park but then pulled them all pretty much at the same time and it's not far to walk from Sainsburys where the 53 and 54 serve, guessing that's the reason why it's not a very good designed bus stop really and would be better if the bridge was opened up but there's plans to pedestrianise it and remove the 2 concrete walls in the future with the B&T Railway.
