I'm not sure which route these are but wonder if it might be this:
After a procurement process in collaboration with the relevant authorities, TVCA has awarded
the services listed below, which are expected to begin operating in February 2024 and will run
for an initial 1-year trial period:
• A new service, or an existing service extension, covering Riverside Park (Middlesbrough).
• Wynyard service covering key employment sites (Stockton)
It's quite close to the Riverside Park area in Middlesbrough and is a 'key employment site' in Stockton aswell.

Just by looking at the timetables you can see that the 36/37/38 cycle just doesn't have enough time to begin with, needs another bus to allow it to slacken off. Going via Teesdale, is slightly slower albeit more predictable. It will probably make it worse overall.

(07 Feb 2024, 8:57 pm)toward6931 "The 36/37/38 seem to get upgraded every 5 year with new buses in 2009, 2014, 2019 so I would guess it’s very likely if they successful at least some of them will be used on them. That would certainly see off the enviro 300 and man 18.220s."
Was it this statement your basing that on?
