Would anyone agree with me that merging the 36 and 42 would make a better service, i know the 42 isnt the most reliably service but i think because its a Loop Service.
This would be my service: 42 - Town End Farm - Downhill - Hylton Red House - Marley Pots - Southwick - Sunderland City Centre - Grangetown - Hollycarrside- Ryhope - Tunstall Village - Silksworth - Every 10 mins
Evening - Normal Evening service but continues on Full route.
Sunday - Extend from City Centre every 30 mins to Town end farm as 42A (Current 42 runs every 15 mins)
Nexus can still run the 135/136.
Add the 2 current times for Journeys on the 36 and 42 = 46 mins (only 1 way) - 46+46 = 92 * 10 = 9.2 = So it would require 10 Buses and still leave 1 spare.
----------------------------
My route for the 73 - Park lane - Fawcett Street - St Mary's way - Queen Alexandra Bridge,Sunderland Enterprise Park east end, Hylton Riverside Retail Park,Sunderland Ent Pk, Defender Ct, Castletown,Sunrise Enterprise Park, Waterview Park,Teal Farm estate,Washington District 15 Exit,Peel Retail Park, Sulgrave,Washington Concord Bus Station,Coach Road Estate - Washington Galleries
I know i posted it earlier in the thread but im bringing all my idea's as 1 post.
---------------------------------------------
202 I would withdraw it over loops with other services
Peterlee - X35
Dalton Park - 61
New Seaham - 60/61
Sunderland to Murton - Dalton Park - New Seaham - Seaham - Ryhope - Grangetown - Sunderland - All covered by 39,42,60,61
--------------
Merge most of the East Durham Buses, Which can be done.
There's my idea's what does everyone think?
