Nobody seems to have picked up on this yet but the 46 will be extended from Crook to Tow Law every hour during the daytime from the end of August. Departures from Durham at 50 mins past will go to Tow Law

Wow, that's good, there will be two buses an hour from Crook to Tow Law again (combined with X1), hasn't been two Arriva buses an hour between Crook and Tow Law since they decided to have the 1 terminate in Crook with the 1B only continuing to Tow Law hourly which was many years ago now.

Would quite like to do that full route when it starts, especially on a double decker.

Yeah shame the timetables don't quite meet to be half hourly but its a start on the expansion of adding extra bits to our network...
Will obviously need an extra bus to be allocated to the 46/48 circuit.

(19 Jul 2015, 8:29 am)GX03 SVC Then you have X21 and X22... 

Great to see that the X20 will go to Alnwick, but I see route variations on the X18...  Sad

The X21/X22 looks like they're changing, I hope it improves the service instead of faffing around with morning services and cutting early evening services.

The X21/X22 changes will probably just be timetable adjustments, can't see them massively changing them, as most of the time they run perfectly fine. The "faffing around" with morning services seems to have helped actually, most Newcastle bound services are on time now, compared with before the changes.

The revised 63 currently doing a larger loop of the town centre. From Morrisons onto the High Street, picking up at Wilkos eastbound then opposite the bus station before heading down the sea front towards the clock.

Apparently due to Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council failing to revise the traffic light sequence at Lord Street/High Street. Buses can't operate directly from Lord Street to Moore Street as a green traffic signal also gives a green pedestrian signal on Moore Street. Safety reasons mean a larger loop is in operation.

Has anyone had chance to look at the revised 63 at the Middlesbrough end yet?
A closer look at the new timetable would suggest the PVR should drop back to 13 or are the vehicles now sitting at MBS for 15 mins instead of 5?

It is now PVR 13 - hence the withdrawal of 1301.

It ISN't actually picking up opposite the bus station - runs non stop from Wilkinsons to the Clock! A right farce! A driver yesterday failed to get a 63 to stop opp the bus station to take the bus off him for the 81, despite banging on the back!

Won't be registered to stop there despite running past, hence why it won't stop.

I'd guess it would be in lieu of the Moore St stop?

Possibly the start of August?

Will be as mentioned above - the temporary routing in Redcar until the council modify the Moore Street/High Street junction to allow the 63 to go straight on.

But, unless there is an alternative service, how are college students going to get to and from college? 

Also, the students will still use the 35 if they do currently?
