Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2
Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes v2
(15 Jun 2019, 10:49 pm)JP6004Indeed, lots of elderly and East Yorkshire B7s to get rid of before Go North East are in a position to get rid of buses.
Still a few V reg presidents kicking about. B9s could transfer onto the 6 as it always seems to be rammed

The ex-London B9s are still fairly new to the fleet themselves, and have just been awarded funding from Gateshead Council to have an SCRT fitted to upgrade them to Euro 6. I wouldn't expect these to leave the fleet any time soon...

(16 Jun 2019, 8:43 am)Michael I'm surprised they've gone for the ex London B9's, even more so with them being duel door...... would of thought it would of been the Omnilinks... how long do they have to keep them in service, with the SCRT upgrade?
At almost 7 years old, the B9s are going to be around for a lot longer than the Omnidekkas, so seem like the better option of the two to get the upgrade.

(16 Jun 2019, 9:15 am)Michael What other buses will get this treatment, as they were rewarded for:
Newcastle - £379,600 - 23 buses
Gateshead - £230,750 - 13 buses - would imagine these are: 6149-6161.
South Tyneside - £133,952 - 8 buses - No idea
My guess:
Newcastle - Quaylink Versa's, there's 23 of them - plus, the Versa's will go for a refurbishment in the next 2 years.
Gateshead - 13 buses - 6149-6161.
South Tyneside - £133,952 - 8 buses - No idea
Not necessarily all Go North East buses of course, apart from the Gateshead ones.

Wonder if the 33/33A will go via Doxford Park shops to East Herrington?, Hopefully it also sorts, the horrendous timetable out too, more likely to make money, if it ran every 20 minutes and then hourly to the docks, instead of... 3,13,33 and 43 minutes past the hour...

A councillor from East Herrington was using it as a photo op the other week after talks with GNE.
"Councillor Dominic McDonough is delighted that following his recent meeting with Go North East and a spirited campaign by local residents. Go North East have announced that they will extend the number 33 bus service to help replace the 36 service that was axed in May.
The service will run from the Board Inn past Oakfield Court, Allendale Road and Lakeside Village to Silksworth. Re-establishing vital links for our community."

The irony being, most of the complaints I seen on the GNE facebook page were about the lost connection to New Herrington and further towards Houghton.

(18 Jun 2019, 6:48 pm)cbma06 I wonder if it’s extended from silksworth to east Herrington to replace the 36 due to customers complaining that there lost that direct route

Bridget has been having her say about public transport in the constituency too.
Although rail seems to be her focus this time, rather than bus
