Teesside Changes from Sunday 27th October 2019
https://www.stagecoachbus.com/service-updates/serviceupdatesarticle?SituationId=ID-05/10/2019-16:23:14:406

------
Looks to be the following drop in PVR:
13/13A: PVR drops by 1 from 6 to 5
34: PVR drops by 1 from 5 to 4
36/37/38: PVR unchanged
58: PVR unchanged

Keeping the 52/35 separate from that list as it's a bit harder to work out. The 52 running time is reduced on weekdays, so instead of an hour and 20 minutes for a round trip as they presently get, they'll now get an hour and 11 minutes. The 35, with the revision to operate direct from Norton Road onto Norton High Street at the Red Lion, goes from a round trip of an hour and 5 minutes to a round trip of just 57 minutes. So, until we can be sure, we're either looking at a reduction of 1 on the 52/35 with all boards doing at least 1 trip on the 35 at some stage of the day (as it was pre-August 2017) or the 35 will revert to stand alone with 2 buses and the 52 will operate with 5 buses, still resulting in a reduction of 1.

EDIT: Sorry, further reviewed the timetables - the 36/37/38 will actually see a PVR increase by 1. Seems during the day, the 36 will be stand alone while the 37/38 will interwork in Middlesbrough.

EDIT2: Further review, the 37 and 38 will also be stand alone during the day, each with a PVR of 3.

Noticed some 38s already showing via Norton Grange today! And a 13 showing Hemlington.

Not sure it's unexpected though, the 35 didn't have an evening service anyway.

(21 Feb 2020, 10:31 pm)Michael wrote Same, seems a odd move, but maybe they want to open up new links, or try something new

Only services atm with no changes atm is:

8/10/11/20/X24 and X34.

As long as the does the exact same times as the 23, i don't mind the changes, as i get the 6:14am 23 on a morning, so hoping that one stays.

(22 Feb 2020, 6:21 am)Dan wrote Perhaps swapping the southern section of the route means the running time on both routes allows a bus to be taken out of the PVR between the two.

Scania OmniLinks 24001-3 could also be withdrawn (due to how unreliable they are and as they are not Euro 6) and some ADL E300s cascaded elsewhere if there are frequency changes planned for the 3, 12, 13 and 16?

(22 Feb 2020, 6:28 pm)markydh wrote Do they? There’s nothing wrong with it. They were going to withdraw the 32 between Benwell and Kenton Bar, and the 18 between the Freeman Hospital and Forest Hall, but NEXUS have stepped in to provide funding for them to stay in place.

(22 Feb 2020, 7:25 pm)V514DFT wrote  And thats good how exactly? So they axed the 15/15A re routed the 32/32A,but no no,that wasnt enough, they then axed the 18 to Forest Hall and Wallsend, replaced it with the 6 and 7 to Forest Hall, a year later decided that wasnt working then the K3 replaced it,that then got axed (yes it was GNE) then Forest Hall lost the link to the Freeman altogether and also lost the link to the Call Centre (yes believe it or not, some people that work there are from Forest Hall) but a couple of months earlier the 1 was extended to the Cobalt, thats just recent examples, the Newcastle network has been a joke for the last 20 years
