I think the Washington work they've won is only specifying Euro 5.

(02 Jul 2022, 10:27 pm)ASX_Terranova wrote Would that rule out the alx400s and presidents then, also what will the expected PVR of the 82/82A be?

(03 Jul 2022, 1:50 pm)ASX_Terranova wrote Traveline is showing the same times as bustimes for 82 & 82A, clear error here then.

(18 Jul 2022, 9:04 pm)ASX_Terranova wrote Not a bad idea, keep majority of the Birtleys together. Also, If the X1 doesnt turn up and somebodies got the right ticket, only a short walk down the path from K.

(19 Jul 2022, 9:57 am)OrangeArrow49 wrote Yes, I think it's a good idea. A good fit with the 21/25/X12/X21 and like you said, the X1 is just a short walk away. Just for a few moments there I was forgetting the 82 isn't a GNE service, I'm not sure if GNE tickets are going to be accepted.

(19 Jul 2022, 10:44 am)OrangeArrow49 wrote Not arguing, but just putting it out there, JH are only going to be operating the 82/82A and the short local 30/31 in Stanley, therefore it's most likely they could only sell cheap singles/returns, due to operating in GNE territory (much like Weardale and Stanley Travel elsewhere in County Durham). Perhaps Nexus tickets could be valid within Tyne & Wear like they are on GCT/Phoenix (it says certain services on the Nexus website, but I believe it's all GCT/Phoenix routes). To be honest I think Nexus/Durham CC tickets should exist for secured bus services. Ticket acceptance does increase passenger numbers on secured bus services, but I guess doesn't increase the income for the local authority. Having ticket acceptance in place is convenient for passengers, as even if Nexus day tickets were valid for travel on the 82/82A , passengers are likely going to be connecting with GNE services, therefore just cheap singles are best if ticket acceptance is not in place. Ultimately, what is the best solution all round?

(19 Jul 2022, 10:50 am)MurdnunoC wrote The Network One Tyne and Wear All Zone Plus weekly pass, priced at £34.00 per week, should be valid on JH services, as well as any services provided by Nexus, DCC, or NCC.
