RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 25 Oct 2018 We're keen to hear from you on some proposed changes to Service 12 within Hurworth... The changes we are looking into are designed primarily to improve the service punctuality. The basic outline of the proposal is summarised as follows, with two options to consider. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/hurworth12#5bd1d82e8e441 PB0002032/579 Registered (Short notice) ARRIVA NORTHUMBRIA LTD Route: St James to Longbenton Service number: 900 (900) Service type: Limited Stop Effective date: 17 Nov 2018 Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Stuartphin1639 - 25 Oct 2018 So I’m guessing there on about changing the 12 route and timetable again?

Can't figure out what they're gonna do here. The options are to have the service running all east to West or one each way each hour. Implies that that theyre not all going to be routed via croft road any longer and will form into a circular through Hurworth.

Use to go Middlesbrough let just hope don't go back to that RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Cock Robin - 30 Oct 2018 I can't see it but why not? RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Kuyoyo - 02 Nov 2018 Survey regarding the future changes to 'Sapphire' 5/5a (Teesside) now underway https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/service5-5a#5bdb282d1adc6 Option A RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Andreos1 - 02 Nov 2018 (02 Nov 2018, 11:19 am)Kuyoyo wrote Survey regarding the future changes to 'Sapphire' 5/5a (Teesside) now underway Interesting to see the comments on the vehicle types and there being some improvement, even though marginal. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael Euston - 02 Nov 2018 (02 Nov 2018, 11:19 am)Kuyoyo wrote Survey regarding the future changes to 'Sapphire' 5/5a (Teesside) now underway Neither option is great but using the A66 is better. East Cleveland needs a better link to Middlesbrough via Guisborough. My idea would bring back an X5 all day. Only 3 stops before Guisborough [Brambles Farm, Ormesby Crossroads, Swans Corner- as the X93]. Then as the 5 now with all stops but a detour to the retail park each way so that everyone from beyond Brotton can get there. Keep the 5A as now. Run the 5 as now very early and late and Sunday. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - tvd - 02 Nov 2018 Ever since the old United and Tees and district days of the 65 (all stops from Easington/Loftus to M'bro) and the X56 (all stops Whitby to Loftus, then limited stops to M'bro), Arriva have been unable to find a perfect settled plan for these journeys. I think they could do a lot worse than using the idea of having both services full length of the routes with the 5A diverting through the Liverton Mines/Skinningrove, Skelton Asda & Hollybush, and Stokesley Road in Guisborough - and the 5, or call it X5, being a genuine express limited stop service from Easington to Middlesbrough. The issues they admit to having is keeping to time beyond Swans Corner, but dont seem willing to address the fact the by that time, all passengers on the bus coming in from East Cleveland by and large only want to go to Middlesbrough town centre, not stopping and starting all the way through Ormesby and Cargo Fleet lane. A change to the service 8 or 9 to go up to Nunthorpe or Swans corner so that either the 5 or 5A doesnt need to serve all stops beyond Swans corner would be worth considering.

The obvious flaw with your suggestion is the requirement for additional vehicles to do it. I dont think Arriva intend to use any more than the 9 buses on Service 5/5A now. Also, the 5/5A performs the local function around Cargo Fleet/Cranmore Road, so a full express is very unlikely, unless there are two hourly variations beyond Guisborough (one via Skelton ASDA and one via both Skinningrove and Liverton Mines). Both of these would increase the end to end time. Not sure what else they could do within the existing PVR. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - NewcastleOne - 02 Nov 2018 Deleted RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Cock Robin - 03 Nov 2018 It was obvious they were going to have trouble keeping to time when they diverted them via Cranmore Road without any extra time.

I dont think Arriva intend to use any more than the 9 buses on Service 5/5A now. That works if they curtail the 5A to Guisborough as it will save 30 minutes per trip. The problem is if it saves 30 minutes that's a bus in the PVR and if they can save a bus they will. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - tvd - 14 Nov 2018 (14 Nov 2018, 12:45 am)Multi21 wrote You many be right, but the main priority shouldnt be to save a bus or two - especially on a Sapphire route, these are supposed to be profitable main routes which if anything deserve more investment. Ive emailed Arriva with my thoughts and I know they are still considering what to do with the 5 and 5A, but the 'problem' part of the routes are definitely between Swans Corner and Middlesbrough bus station. At the other end it could be argued that Easington doesnt need as many buses as it currently gets, but they need to turn round somewhere. Theres also variations such as Liverton Mines and Skinningrove to take into account, and a growing demand for a bus to Skelton Asda from East Cleveland. Its tough balancing all these demands with trying to get to and from Middlesbrough in a reasonable amount of time.

The retail park is only going to get bigger and more popular. I've a feeling it will expand in to the industrial area behind before long. However, there is limited public transport and as you say, a growing demand from south of Skelton. I wonder if the retail park owners push for or encourage anything? I wonder if the bus saved on the 5/5a could be dropped in to an extended X3A? RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - S830OFT - 14 Nov 2018 (14 Nov 2018, 2:38 pm)Andreos1 wrote The retail park is only going to get bigger and more popular. I think the X5 should be brought back, but keeping the X4 in the process. So between Loftus and Redcar it's Every 30 minutes combined as service X4 would get reduced. Then make the service between Saltburn and Middlesbrough every 20 minutes with all 3 services operating hourly, but combining to form the Every 20 minutes frequency. RE: Arriva North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael Euston - 15 Nov 2018 No need to over complicate this. There's nothing wrong with the X4 despite it's summer delays. The X3 and X3A seem to work fine. Keep the 5A running to Skelton as the all-stops route. Run the 5 as an X5 during the day. Run it via the bypass and have it stop only at Brambles Farm, Ormesby Crossroads and Swans Corner [as the X93 does now] and then all stops to Easington. It is now 7-10 minutes earlier and has probably now passed the 5A. That leaves time to go to the retail park and still do the variations to Skinningrove and Liverton Mines once an hour. Brotton and Loftus have a service to Asda. (14 Nov 2018, 3:57 pm)S830OFT wrote I think the X5 should be brought back, but keeping the X4 in the process.
