Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2016

(28 Jul 2016, 7:27 pm)peter wrote Does anyone have any idea what the plans for Frequenta are after the 15 and the 63? Could quite easily see the 64/64a and the 28/29/29a joining next! Is there any chance of the 27/27A/9 joining as there are common sections with a 10 minute frequency, or may those proposed changes a while back ever go ahead???

I don't think the 28/28a/29/29a will join the brand - after all, they are only a combined service in parts (28/28a/29 4 an hour to Marton, 29/29a 4 an hour to Easterside and Marton Manor via Linthorpe). 64/64a is another tricky one - after all they are every 10 minutes during the week then every 15 on a Saturday (interworking with the S2 as well).

As for the 9/27/27a - another tricky one. Had the plan for a simplified service to Netherfields come about by now (every 10 minutes via the 27a route as the 8) then I would say yes as they would have a core 5 minute frequency. The 9/27a at present don't have a even frequency during the week (5/10 split weekdays - and once an hour on a Saturday they leave Middlesbrough together).
