I'm unsure on the route of the X40/X41 but from an outsider, surely it would've made more sense to extend the 35 which is clearly struggling as it is. The thing is basically on the doorstep.
More duplication for absolutely no benefit, especially when it's the same operator getting the money anyway.

(26 Feb 2024, 12:40 pm)Kuyoyo From what I understand from a official Stagecoach notice floating about, one will operate via Billingham and the other is direct via the A19.

(26 Feb 2024, 12:46 pm)Storx Not sure if you know, is it just serving the business park part of it, or is it serving the estates aswell? Not that I'd expect many people there to ever touch a bus.

(26 Feb 2024, 9:44 pm)tyresmoke The tender spec required an hourly service to Wolviston village and all Wynyard estates with a service to Billingham and then one of Stockton or Middlesbrough.
I understand this will run to Stockton for the daytime portion. I’m going to assume the other service is going to be a direct bus to Middlesbrough at shift times - mostly Amazon, but GXO & other businesses were also named.
Journeys to Hartlepool were also required outside of times the 36 operated so this is why the 36a will presumably cover this part of it. Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see some 36’s diverted in outside of these times too, to give capacity for Amazon staff at least.
As for the 59 the reg says extra journeys at school times, believe it will be a duplicate/extra for Macmillan Academy and funded from another service being cut to provide the bus. That may have changed and maybe it’ll come from the RP1 instead?

(27 Feb 2024, 11:23 am)Storx Thanks for that, be interesting to see how it does as I don't really see Wynyard as the sort of place where people will touch a bus, especially one which goes to Stockton and Billingham which no offence to both places, I can't imagine people from Wynyard will exactly be rushing to go to.

(27 Feb 2024, 5:58 pm)RobinHood Another example of TVCA wasting BSIP+ funding. Zero consultation but instead decided by whichever Cllr shouts the loudest.Meanwhile Hartlepool once again gets nothing despite the need for a service to North Tees and a service between Headland and West View.

(29 Feb 2024, 5:43 pm)Storx Pretty much like, I'm not sure where people from Wynyard might want to go but it definitely isn't there.
No-one cares about Hartlepool . Never realised it was unserved along there mind, pretty poor. Then again the whole West side of Hartlepool has a pretty dire service really, especially around Park Road and West Park area with either an hourly service or nothing at all.
Good thing there's buses to his fantasy airport though.

(29 Feb 2024, 7:58 pm)tyresmoke Nobody in Wynyard has ever used a bus and never will. It’s a good idea for the staff from Amazon etc but the residents don’t even know what a bus is, never mind use one…

(29 Feb 2024, 8:47 pm)col87 I know you were joking but the sad fact is you are correct the combined authority are happy to waste money on pointless services to the airport and seeing how far they can annoy Arriva and putting in services where millionaires live which will never be used but won’t provide money for routes in Hartlepool which could be useful. Stagecoach don’t care some of the buses wouldn’t look out of place in a scrapyard but instead of investing they just dump more scrap here so we get a second rate bus service if the bus actually turns up and are expected to be grateful for it.
