(08 Nov 2016, 11:58 am)RBZ 5459 Has it been mentioned? You'd have to point me at that one.
As an 'X24', going via The Boldons/A184 would mean that the service would shadow west parts of the X34 route, meaning perhaps more chance of it surviving - plus links to Shields+Market of course.
More testing the water by connecting the network rather than hugely competing in my view, especially if its starting off at a low PVR.

Could it not be operating the 5 route between the town and the Broadway? Since ive read somewhere the 8 is going to be partly replaced by the 5- I'm assuming that means around the Helmsdale Road area. That could allow the 5 to run via Hylton Road, Helmsdale Road, Holborn Road and then normal route to Gilley Law. Otherwise it is abit of a diversion to loop around Helmsdale Road on its current route.

From what I can make out so far, user 'deleted' is a Sunderland based SNE employee so his statement of the X24 going City Centre -Chester Road -A19 - Gateshead and Newcastle appears to be the confirmation.
No more need for speculation on the Boldon corridor.
As Dan said... Chester Road will be one of the main problems for time keeping, along with Newcastle. I do hope they've thought about that!
If the 18/19 is dropping to hourly, then at least 1 bus will come from that service, Stagecoach might make it a 3 PVR so extra layover time can be added.
Just got a email from Stagecoach:
Proposed Changes in Sunderland
https://www.stagecoachbus.com/promos-and...ed-changes
------------
NEW Service X24 - Sunderland to Newcastle
As part of these proposed changes, we're thinking about introducing an inter-urban express route between Sunderland and Newcastle!
Buses would operate from Sunderland City Centre along Chester Road and then direct to Newcastle City Centre.
Service X24 would operate up to every 30 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytimes. The route in Sunderland City Centre would operate clockwise from Chester Road via St.Michael's Way, St.Mary's Way, John Street, Holmeside, Green Terrace and Chester Road. The timetable details are currently undergoing refinement and will be subject to the feedback we receive from you.

Without seeing any timetables it looks like Sunderland's overall PVR is going to be reduced by 2.
(09 Nov 2016, 4:30 pm)Michael Hopefully means that dart will finally go!

(09 Nov 2016, 3:47 pm)Michael Ye, wouldn't be surprised if it changed again after the questionnaire has finished.
At the minute i expect to see a lot of complaints about the proposed changes - meaning Stagecoach could change their idea's, no idea when it finishes though.
