Remove "Washington Street Shuttle". I did strongly hint at this yesterday, but how about QuayLINK Versa cascades in 2015, if the Cadets prove to be successful on those services? I feel like a broken record, but remember depot standardisation. Washington have already received similar vehicles for "South Tyne" service 88.
busmanT gave a very clear image of the top priorities for next year, with Rob filling in the gaps.
- X66 (11.7m Versa)
- Lime (Citaro)
- Crusader (Double decker - B5TL/Optare Integral?)
- Laser (As above)
- Toon Link (As above, or Citaro).
- Fab57 (11.7m Versa).
Demonstration vehicles will be required for some of next year's orders as some products have now been discontinued by manufacturers, and it will be difficult to meet the £11m budget if we have such a large order of heavy weight double decked vehicles again.
80 buses, sorted.
