Minor changes to Service 20 from Monday 19 June 2017

To more closely reflect prevailing levels of traffic congestion along Hylton Road, the Monday to Friday morning timetable is revised, with a number of trips running up to 5 minutes earlier before 1000am.

There are no other changes to Service 20, which will continue to operate up to every 10 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytimes, every 20 minutes on Sunday daytimes, and every 30 minutes during each evening.

We have been advised by Sunderland Council that Pallion New Road will need to be closed each evening/ overnight between Monday 12 June and Sunday 2 July 2017 to enable road resurfacing works to be carried out in a safe and controlled environment.

Don't remember the consultation saying anything about the 10A being axed?

I wonder maybe if the 10/10a aren't going to be consolidated into one registration rather than having two separate ones.

I wonder out of curiosity where all of these 'improvements' are coming from. I am not sure if Stagecoach is telling local teams to make cost-cuttings or whether it is the local commercial team and new managing director....

It'll be interesting to see where they're going to revise the route of the 3 to give it the extra time to get across to Clavering and back, as the current timetable shows it as only having a minute layover at each end of the route

Don't think extending the 3 over to Clavering was mentioned, though I suggested it here and on the consultation. 

Also terminating the 36 at Hartlepool town centre is new I think. I presume it'll do the current evening route via Park Road.

I'm not sure they've ever been touted as improvements. Stagecoach prefer to say 'revisions to reflect changing traveling patterns'. 

Well the postal response address for the Teesside consultation was Wheatsheaf, so that tells you that who's making the decisions.

A Stagecoach employee has commented on a Hartlepool community forum that the new route of the 3 will extend from Bishop Cuthbert, through Clavering, full length of King Owsy Drive to West View Rd/Davison Dr then over Saxon Roundabout & A179 to complete the loop at Middle Warren Sainsbury's.
Kuyoyo   17 Jul 2017, 10:18 pm
Times are now available on Traveline:

1: Middlesbrough departure times are now xx15/xx45
10: Departing Middlesbrough at xx15, xx35 (same as Arriva's 28a) and xx55
12: departures are: xx09, xx21, xx33, xx45 and xx57
13: retimed to run a minute later from Middlesbrough (Hemlington departures are xx00/xx30, Salters Lane xx05/xx35)
14: departures now xx20 and xx50
34: will depart Middlesbrough at xx23 and xx53
34a: departures from Middlesbrough are xx08 and xx38
35: seems just the High Grange secition is being dropped, Traveline suggests the rerouting in Wolviston Court has been dropped
39: dropped to every ten minutes leaving the bus station at 03/13/23/33/43/53 past, seems no change to the PVR but improved turn around time at Park End
52: Stockton departures are the same times as the 34/34a departures from Middlesbrough
58: will leave the town centre at xx00 etc
Kuyoyo   18 Jul 2017, 8:26 am
And further, the cutting back of the 36 will see additional running time added. So, at present, the only confirmed vehicle reduction at Stockton is the one freed by the reduction of the 10/11 to just the 10 every 20 minutes.

EDIT BELOW
Indeed, judging by the timing available via Traveline, the PVR breakdown is as followed:
10: 4 (down from 5)
12: looks to be 7, could still be 8
13: 5
14: 2 (down from combined 6 on 14/34)
34/34a: 5
35: likely to be 2 and standalone
36/37/38: 16
39: 5
52: likely to be 5 (down two from the present 7 on 52/35)
58: 4 (unchanged from the current 58/35)
59/61: 6

Confirms that Teesside's PVR change is -1 - the 12 appears to be a 7 vehicle working judging by the timetable.

James101   02 Aug 2017, 10:55 pm
Hartlepool's upcoming evening 7s are on an odd timetable!

Southbound, buses run Middlegate to Owton Manor, as per daytime - simple. 

Northbound, buses terminate in the town centre (York Road), then continue to Clavering as service 6. Upon returning as a 6, buses terminate at Grand Hotel where they then pick up the other half of the 7 they earlier abandoned. 

The outcome is passengers on the 7 which intend to travel north across the town will be booted off at York Road and will have 9 minutes to complete a quarter-mile walk to pick up the second half of the 7.  

Confusion also arrises as the drop-off stands for the 6 are completely separate from the pick-up stands. I can't see this helping sustainability of these evening services. 

I can't help a better way of working would have been the have the 7 stand alone and add the 6 onto the end of the 36. This way everything could match their daytime routes and daytime stops, other than the 36 dropping off at York Rd rather than Park Rd. PVR could be the same too, as the extra 37 mins added the the 36 by returning to Clavering could be covered by 1 extra bus, if the 36/37/38 were to all interwork at Middlesbrough.

Southbound, buses run Middlegate to Owton Manor, as per daytime - simple.

BIB: the evening runs on 36/37/38 don't interwork with each other in Middlesbrough on an evening - the 36 and 37 are stand alone using 4 and 1 respectively while the 38 interworks with the 12.

They could easily change it.

That's ridiculous!
