Those waiting for a Shields bound 35, 20, X36 (as well as 99), would potentially not have a say on the services...
The loadings on the 35a have been diabolical since the leg between Rainton Bridge and Houghton was sent via the A690.
Any idea which route the 38 will be taking?
This is why I previously suggested the stand would be located near Greggs - in the middle of the 20 and 35 stands - clearly this hasn't been the case though... Really hadn't expected any proposed service changes to the 99 due to the consultation being held in Park Lane (where no passengers who only travel on that route could have a say)...
I think the low passenger numbers on service 35A (and hence falling profit levels) are the main reason why we're seeing proposed service changes. Despite this, from what I could make out on the map being showed to the local councillor, the 38 was proposed to take the same routing as service 35A through Newbottle and such. I prefer to read and hear information at the same time to fully understand what someone is saying, and as I was only given the option of listening to the Go North East employee (I could barely see the maps - despite being printed on A3 paper), I was left struggling to understand some of the things that were being said.
