A NEW cross city bus service is being launched in Durham this summer.
The service, which will be run by Scarlet Band, will connect Durham University’s colleges and academic departments.
It will be available all through the year for both students and non-students and is aimed at reducing the number of cars used in the city.
It will use similar buses to those used by the city’s park and ride service and will launch in July.
The route will start at Ernest Place, a new block of student accommodation set to open in September, and will travel along Sunderland Road, Claypath and New Elvet, stopping near Hild Bede College, The Market Place, Elvet Riverside, the university’s science site off South Road and Josephine Butler College.
Scarlet Band is working with Durham University’s Greenspace team and Collegiate AC, which will manage Ernest Place.
The Greenspace team has developed a sustainable travel plan (STP) for Durham, aimed at reducing the use of cars and promoting more sustainable modes of travel.
Heriberto Cuanalo, CEO of Collegiate AC, said: “ We have been working with our local partners Bill Free Homes in order to get the right route and the right operator, we have partnered with Scarlet Band who also run the council’s park and ride services.”
“With the intention of expanding their green strategy, the university is confident this bus route will become a positive addition to their STP. I’m excited to work with the university to help it achieve its environmental goals and look forward to being a part of this latest scheme.”

(02 Feb 2017, 10:18 am)Andreos1 So it's a totally different service to the U1. I wonder how if affects the likes of the 20 or 64? The number who get off those services at Claypath or Leazes Bowl and head up towards the market is pretty high.
Re the link. It was asking me to log in and then I could access something like 20 articles. I could see the first couple of paragraphs and that was about it.

(09 Feb 2017, 11:12 pm)BusLoverMum I'll keep an eye on the 58, since that's mostly E200 run (and often fills up), anyhow.Apparently YX65RLO will be used on 113.
