Routes 37 and 73 will be diverted on the Coach Road Estate, Usworth, Washington, from Monday to Wednesday, 9-11 January, to allow resurfacing. Buses normally travel clockwise round the estate, but on these days will be diverted from Heworth Road to operate via The Drive, Well Bank Road, Coach Road and Heworth Road to Concord bus station. They will observe all stops along the diverted route.

As the vehicle does not comply with PSVAR its use on a service with individual fares is questionable. At least it is showing a destination display now something that was missing back in November.

(06 Jan 2017, 5:08 pm)Adrian What you're referring to would be a very loose interpretation of the legislation, and one which I personally doubt would stand up legally if challenged. However, it would not apply in the case of W177SCU regardless, as the bus is not 20+ years old.

(06 Jan 2017, 5:25 pm)South Tyne Lad Corrected, Cheers for letting me know, What I don't understand is why would a Step Entrance Single/Double deck vehicle be able to be used when a 16 1/2 Year old low floor Decker cant, -
Especially as the latter comes closer to the required regulations than a 20 year old Step Entrance vehicle even if both are classed as not meeting them?
