Due to a number of vehicles being targeted by youths throwing missiles at Houghton, causing damage to our vehicles, we will not be serving Houghton Church and Newbottle Street, instead diverting via Hillside Way until further notice, many apologies

(03 Dec 2017, 9:04 pm)Tom wrote Ah right, so I would have thought this:
5253/54 - Washington for 5/50 (extension to 5 should only need 1 bus, and 1 spare) - No WiFi so will make the allocation the same
5251/52/61/62 - 19
5263-71 - 11
That leaves 5272, 5273 and 5274 spare.
On the other hand they could go to Stanley for the Toon Link so replace Omindekkas but I'm sure some boards will require a high capacity than Omnicities?

Then 5261 to 5274 for the 11/19
