(28 Mar 2017, 6:50 pm)Michael Oh cool, be weird seeing "Go North East" run around Barnes etc... i wonder if Stagecoach will decide to run it commercially or part-commercial, be interesting to see what happens. 

The 8, will probables be a Solo, if Stagecoach decide not to run it commercially or part-commercial.

(29 Mar 2017, 5:04 am)Michael The only time the Go North East 8 will cross routes with the contract 8 is on Green Terrence and on Chester road when it's the 8A, which is only a few times, however one of the problems could be that people can't use their Stagecoach Megarider's on the 8 when Go North East start to run it... hopefully they can. 

Stagecoach might even decide to run it part commercial or fully commercial yet.

It was quite strange seeing a Go North East bus in South Hylton today.

Stagecoach's tickets aren't valid on the service, but equally, Go North East's tickets weren't valid on Stagecoach's evening/Sunday 8 service in The Docks area when they previously held the contract.

There was always going to be a 'loser' in this situation - whether it be the residents of South Hylton or the residents of The Docks - if the customer doesn't opt for a 'SmartZone' ticket allowing travel on all operators' buses in the city.

They have.

Go North East has lost around 20 Misc Works, awarded a further 5. I think Gateshead Central Taxis have lost a couple, too. Kingsley's and JH Coaches have picked up the most contracts - around 17 each, if I remember rightly.
