RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Ryland - 01 Mar 2025 Interesting to see the 96 is cancelled. Are they going to increase the frequency of the 95 RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Storx - 01 Mar 2025 (01 Mar 2025, 9:17 am)Ryland wrote Interesting to see the 96 is cancelled. Are they going to increase the frequency of the 95 Possibly could bin it off either and let someone else run it? Not sure from a money point of view it would be worth keeping it and having to keep the Solo's in service. Without it they could argue withdraw the lot, bar the 3 baby ones at Ashington. Believe the 95 can run with Pulsar's without issue.

Yeah not too surprised. Be interesting if they even bid for it as it means they can now effectively withdraw the remaining Solo's which are a headache as an understatement as I assume they're on borrowed time now. Be a quite expensive tender if they had to get a new bus for it since the 63 Solo SR's seem as reliable as the rest. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Superman - 01 Mar 2025 96 wasn't lost to anyone. Arriva handed it back, as they didn't want to operate it anymore. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - OrangeArrow49 - 01 Mar 2025 Who has been awarded the 96?

The section around Eskdale Estate and the bit down to and over the swing bridge will now be on the 96 route, which is reduced to 3 return trips per day and will now be operated by 21 Transport. Think most of the remaining changes from April 6th is just minor changes to timings, mainly just at peak times, plus the start of summer season on Whitby services. Following the survey last year, service 56 will now operate in a loop from Coundon running direct along the A688 to Tindle Crescent and will then head into Bishop Auckland Town Centre.

I believe it will be working off the 116R between Thornton le Dale and Lady Lumley School. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - 9920up - 13 Mar 2025 April changes (most of them anyway) now published by Arriva. https://www.arrivabus.co.uk/latest-news/location/north-east?page=1 RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - BusLoverMum - 13 Mar 2025 The evening diversions for the 64 over the next 10 days are as clear as mud! It's only Dryburn view closed for the first few evenings, anyhow. It's being done in stages. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 13 Mar 2025 (13 Mar 2025, 5:24 pm)9920up wrote April changes (most of them anyway) now published by Arriva. https://www.arrivabus.co.uk/latest-news/location/north-east?page=1 Surprised that Arriva haven't taken advantage of the shambles at GNE and set up a genuine competitor to the 21/X21. They've got the depot to do it from the Durham end of the route and could probably get the vehicles. Dunno how easy it would be to recruit drivers though unless they offered an incentive for any GNE drivers to leave Washy / Consett. Only issue is lack of support at the Newcastle end of the route with Jesmond gone. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Jimmi - 29 Apr 2025 Darlington service 8 will revert to its normal route between Newton Aycliffe and Rushyford via Central Avenue and the A167 following the completion of long term roadworks, effective May 4th 2025.

RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Superman - 18 May 2025 I think it is, as TVCA mention they are funding it in their committee meeting paperwork. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - cainebj - 18 May 2025 The Arriva registration shows no subsidies. Service 16 was tendered by Darlington Borough Council when Hodgsons ran it, after they part funded it since COVID with Scarlet Band (previously wholly commercial). TVCA took over the tendering in 2024 when Hodgsons contract with DBC was expiring, and was won by Stagecoach. Hodgsons didn't submit a tender under the TVCA competition following their expansion in North Yorkshire at the time. |
