(19 Aug 2012, 8:46 pm)Brandon wrote Stagecoach in Sunderland service 4 -

A VOSA registration was submitted some time ago for a change in route and timetable to service 4 from 9 September 2012.

PB0002404/60 - BUSWAYS TRAVEL SERVICES LTD T/A STAGECOACH NORTHEAST, ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, NORTH BRIDGE STREET, SUNDERLAND, SR5 1AQ
Variation Accepted: Operating between Downhill and Doxford Park given service number 4 effective from 09-Sep-2012. To amend Route and Timetable.

The Stagecoach website has updated its timetable section to say that the existing timetable will be finishing on the 8 September. Although it has not been officially announced by Stagecoach yet, the Traveline journey planner shows that service 4 is to extend from Downhill to Town End Farm every 10 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytimes. I can only assume that this is an attempt to increase market share in conjunction with the existing 13 service over Go North East's service 36.

The extension of service 4 would increase it's PVR from 9 to 10.

Stagecoach making sure it has the hand in Sunderland once again, GNE 36 is still doing well, it has alot of competition on its route, if this change is correct, stagecoach just want to link Sunderland up from all area's to give new links and GNE more work.

RE: Stagecoach North East
Changes to Service 4 from Sunday 9 September 2012 - got changes from new timetable, nothing on site yet.

To improve access to Town End Farm, all Monday to Saturday daytime Service 4 journeys are extended from Downhill via Hylton Lane and Brunswick Road to Town End Farm, running up to every 10 minutes.In Town End Farm, these Service 4 buses will operate an anti-clockwise loop via Baxter Road, Baxter Avenue and Bexhill Road. Customers may board or alight at any point on this loop, and travel across the Baxter Square terminus.Evening and Sunday Service 4 buses will continue to run between Downhill and Doxford Park.To improve the coordination of buses to and from Doxford Park during Sunday daytimes, most trips will be retimed to run 3 minutes later.
