(13 Oct 2015, 8:33 pm)Dan wrote Go North East stated on its Facebook page that another service would stop about five minutes away from the stops in Hobson at the moment and they chose to remove buses from Hobson owing to low passenger numbers getting on/off in this area.
But going through Hobson also creates faster journey times as its literally a straight road from Pickering Nook to Crookgate missing out Burnopfield. Perfect for the 6 or something like that. Burnopfield already has 3 buses to Newcastle (6, X70 and X71) and 2 buses to Metrocentre (6 and V7). A bit over-bussed in my opinion.
