Sorry to disappoint, Tommy, but no bus wars this time!

Chester-le-Street Front Street - FULL closure - 16th March

Easter services - http://www.simplygo.com/news/easter-serv...tion-2015/
According to the timetable the X88 is going to Sunderland... looks like a mistake
Regarding the closure of Chester-le-Street Front Street, a letter we all received this morning in tutor regarding our scholars service, I have put below:
Dear Parent/Guardian,
Northumbrian Water have indicated that the Northbound closure of Front Street, Chester-le-Street, will take effect as of Monday, 16 March. This will affect all school buses in the morning as they will be entering the Church Chare site from the Cestria entrance and leaving along Roman Avenue and then onto the A167 to travel to our North Lodge site.
There are two consequences which need to be noted:
A) All school buses will run 5-10 minutes early each morning so students need to be at the stops in the villages and along the routes to school earlier than they are used to.
B) The school buses will only stop at our Church Chare site on their way to North Lodge, and not at all on the Front Street. Students travelling to North Lodge should, therefore, ensure they are at out Church Chare site 5-10 minutes earlier each morning to catch the scholars services.
I have not been informed how long this arrangement will be in place, but will contact you again when Northumbrian Water and Durham County Council are in a position to confirm. Thank you, as ever, for your support during this matter.
Please note, transport after school will operate as it does now*, but the explanation would be too long.
Yours faithfully,
(Headteacher's Name)
Not a service change exactly, but thought to share anyway.
* If anyone would like to know how the scholars services operate on an evening, please ask.
Just realised...with these closures, my local stop at Clifford Terrace will be unserved by any buses. 
Looks like I'll have to walk into Chester-le-Street every morning I go out...
These works are beyond a joke!

(06 Mar 2015, 5:03 pm)MarcTheA4 Thanks nk55, I just realised after posting, and after contacting GNE on Twitter, they confirmed the shuttle service was operating past my local stop. #dilemmaover
Thanks anyway.
