(07 Nov 2016, 8:49 pm)NK53 TKT wrote A New 46 timetable would be introduced meaning that the PVR would be six because the buses would run through to the General Hospital every 15 minutes Monday-Friday daytime (every 15 minutes Great Park-Haymarket on a Saturday and every 30 minutes Great Park-Haymarket giving Melbury an Evening and Sunday bus. To do this 1772 and 1774 would transfer to Blyth in return for 2801 and 2802. 2801, 2802 and spare 2815 would transfer to Jesmond with 2801 and 2802 gaining 46 branding and WiFi while 2815 would gain generic NHS branding and would be spare for the 46/553. The 51 would also become half-hourly full route (hourly full route on Evenings and Sundays), the 53 timetable would alter to allow West Allotment a bus every 15 minutes. The 553 would be the same Monday-Fridays as it would be on Saturdays with an hourly service full route on Sundays with no short journeys.
Therefore to solve this issue 2801, 2802, 2842, 2844, 2845 and 2847 would be on the 46.
2806, 2824, 2834 and 2840 would be on the 55.
2601 would be on the 6.
2825 and 2846 would be on the 553
1761, 1770, 2870 and 2871 would be on the 51.
2815 and 2848 would be spare.
2870 and 2871 would be on the 18/18A Evenings and Sundays
2601, 2801, 2802 and 2806 would run the 32/32A.


24 New Streetlites would come for Eco Green Killingworth routes 52/53/54 also allowing them to be every 20 minutes. The 52 would also be extended to Blyth via the following route:
