Ashington should be seen as an example of that. Half of the old depot and bus station is still a huge hole, some 6 years after demolition. Not to mention the new bus station which is nothing near what it was planned to be.
Aye totally agreed there, ngl the Arriva plans seem rather on the cheap so maybe they might move sometime in the longer term. Your right though that it probably won't happen. Add Bedlington to that list aswell, mind isn't the bus station basically all that was planned, bar it actually had buildings around it, supposedly a cinema etc but it's gone very quiet lately. Believe Home Bargains is being built now though?
