Divert the 28A to call at Retail World before and after it’s call at Sainsburys to restore links to Birtley, Kibblesworth, South Saltwell Rd and Ouston lost from the 809 withdrawal.
Divert the X22 if it ever returns via Retail World tho that’s a harder sell than the 28A
Along with eye witness accounts, GNE twitter reports, anecdotal evidence, my insistent posts and official statistics - Retail Parks (such as the Arnison Centre, Retail World etc) are on the up.
People are going there in increasing numbers. But bus operators seem slow on catching on to this change - despite the repeated social media posts about the buses they do send in to the retail parks, being stuck in traffic...
