As 628? (newly branded solo) on 700.

I believe 4897 will be selected for withdrawal instead.
4922, which was also noted as having been withdrawn, was reinstated yesterday (allocated to services 67/69).

One tidbit was that they are in advanced negotiations with Go Ahead to bring the bus services onto site once the centre opens in October/November. Discussions have been positive so far.
(for anyone wondering there's obviously going to be a brand new entrance and route built as at present you couldn't get a bus onsite)

Does anyone know what happened to this story from March/April 14? The new Emergency Care unit has been there a while now and there ain't no buses parking up outside.

No hope you'd get anything bigger than a Solo into the QE. Don't think you really need it, it's 5 minutes very slow walking from entrance to bus stop. (for the 93/94 /67/89/69) Admittedly the Old Durham Road stops, particularly northbound are a hike
