The Streetlites on the 1 which has been just been dropped to every 20 minutes for example and the rest of the network which is ran by GCT in the evening (when they bother to run that is). If Arriva if we're actually in the mood to take routes they could easily extend all the 306's through with brand new buses and really hit the 1 hard on the Coast especially with all the connections Arriva offer at Whitley to everywhere. Obviously that won't be happening though. Stagecoach have already hit hard the rest of the route with the 22 extension to Cobalt.Imo with GCT or any bus company, only one company should run a route either give a route to GNE who will brand, look after and can be arsed to keep there buses running, or GCT to run them. Bus routes should **not** be split between companies. All DB have given up with Arriva I think they will start selling there depots off.
Not sure why Arriva would serve Wallsend that's Stagecoach territory and they've been doing a good job at being a pest aswell towards GNE (22 extension to Cobalt in particular).
Anyway that was about Peterlee not North Tyneside, don't want to drag it into another North Tyneside thread there's been enough.
