RE: Go North East service levels during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
With an expectant announcement from the Government this weekend that lockdown restrictions may be relaxed, there may be a small increase in demand for bus services. To allow for better social distancing where possible, the following services will be operated by larger vehicles as a result of this:

Consett
  • X30: Single-deck to double-deck
  • X71: Single-deck to double-deck
Deptford
  • 5: Minibus to single-deck
  • 20: Single-deck to double-deck
  • 33: Minibus to single-deck
  • 38: Minibus to single-deck
  • 50: Single-deck to double-deck
  • 135/136: Minibus to single-deck
Hexham
  • 185/681/X81: Merc Sprinter to minibus
  • 74: Merc Sprinter to minibus
  • X84/X85: Minibus to single-deck
Riverside
  • 33A: Minibus to midibus
  • 53/54: Midibus to single-deck
  • 57: Single-deck to double-deck
  • Q3: Minibus to single-deck
  • X10: Single-deck to double-deck


As such, some of the buses which are currently 'not in service' will return to service, and a small number of the buses which were delicensed have also been brought back into service.

There will also be a small number of transfers as a consequence:
  • 5389 & 5390: Riverside to Hexham
  • 6304, 6305, 6306, 6307: Riverside to Consett
  • 5442, 5443, 5444, 5445: Consett to Riverside
  • 6157: Consett to Deptford
