Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015

RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015
The first question in the Stanley survey is basically bringing the Diamond services back to how they used to be. 43/44/44A between Newcastle and Stanley and 718/719 (not including 720 because it didn't go via the current Diamond routes properly) between Stanley and Durham. 

I am struggling to decide whether an increase to the frequency of the X30/X31 between Stanley and Newcastle is a good idea. I have never seen the services really busy even for double deckers to be allocated.

Rather than using the word 'connect', why can't they just advertise that every half an hour, one service X30 and one X31 will continue to Lanchester. 

Increasing the X43. I don't think its really needed if i'm completely honest. Again, i don't think it gets too busy.

I assume the 'route change' to the Diamond services due to the amount of fast buses would just to be completely withdraw service 43 and just have the 44/44A? Would be a brilliant change but I just do not think it is necessary.

I like the idea of the coordination of services in Stanley Bus Station. Will make life much easier than having to walk from Stand B to H just to connect between Venture service V8 and Coast&Country service 8!
