Still, if they do get finished by October, it will have only been 6 months (albeit 1 month over the estimated length) but that's better than the Leadgate bridge works. 6 months they said when they closed it in May 2015 and over a year later they are still not finished. They have, however, said that they should have it completed by December this year.

(03 Sep 2016, 11:38 am)Jimmi wrote Looks like they are just renumbering the 21 as X21 and 21A as X22 between Darlington/Middlesbrough and Peterlee.
(14 Sep 2016, 7:34 am)Kuyoyo wrote And the times for the X22 are now available on the app:
The 0716 from Sedgefield will now start in Stockton at 0653 and run 5 minutes later from Sedgefield to Peterlee arriving at 0805 (currently 0800)
The 1720 from Peterlee to Stockton is retimed to depart at 1725 and is extended to Middlesbrough arriving at 1850.
The X21 will also revert to operate direct via Burnhope Way avoiding Pennine Drive while the X22 will continue to do so.
Also of interest is the re-routing of the X21 between Sunderland and Peterlee to operate via the current X22 route via Dawdon and Seaham. The journey time between Peterlee and Sunderland is now 31 minutes. Also now offering later journeys - the last departure from Sunderland will now be 1946 (currently 1830). That one carries on to Newton Aycliffe arriving 2108 (the current last departure off Peterlee also still terminate at Newton Aycliffe).

The PDF timetables are in typical fashion a absolute mess, Peterlee - Sunderland section is just dumped randomly within the timetable probably after Newton Aycliffe Town Centre again!
I can't find the Peterlee-Sunderland info in that link.
