2/2a, 8 and 81.
Appreciate the 2/2a doesn't quite hit Rickleton mind. A fair drop from days of yore mind, when there was the likes of the 294, 179, 180, X6, 777, 638 etc.
I'm not sure the loop roads in Biddick or Lambton need a service to be honest.
As for Bonemill Lane - there's the 8. Scoots straight down it to/from Harraton and Rickleton.
Yeah Harraton is currently served by the services you mentioned all on a half hourly frequency. The 2 serves Lambton and Harraton with the 2A going through Biddick then onto Fatfield etc. Still that is more services than I realised.
While I think it would be a good idea for the Biddick and Lambton loop roads to be given a service, I doubt GNE would be willing to do this as there is no where for the buses to stop, apart from on a Hail and Ride basis which isn't always the best. It may be helpful to the elderly mind.
