Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015

Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015

RE: Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015
Apart from setting up a 'plonker of the day' thread, there isn't any other place to put this.
Coming off the slip road at Houghton on the A690, I spotted an ANE decker heading along Hillside Way.

Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to follow it. It turned left down Newbottle Street. As I got closer, I noticed the rear blind simply showing 'Arriva'.

A new route? Competition for the 20's? Cheaper fares? That's all it could be. They were out doing a risk assessment and checking timings!

As it entered the bus only section, I took the opportunity to take a photo - just incase I couldn't get round to The Broadway in time to see where it went from there.

Anyway, scooted round to The Broadway to meet it there. I could see it parked up. Bonus!

Except, it was the ED12 laying over before presumably making a trip back to East Durham College.

Gutted!
