(17 Dec 2019, 4:38 pm)DH9 wrote 6 to return to half hourly along its entire route?

Its had major timing problems since last change on 29th July 2019.

(17 Dec 2019, 5:38 pm)cbma06 wrote So are the x9/x10 buses going on the x84/x85 middle of next year, When those scanias get withdrawn? Or did I read the information wrong?

(18 Dec 2019, 10:44 am)pbjd wrote There are timing changes to the 6 to link it to another service, whether this includes going back to every 30 to Stanley too, I don't know, unlikely tho as the 6 doesn't carry many up to Stanley.

(18 Dec 2019, 11:21 am)streetdeckfan wrote People actually take notice of the 20 limit in Whickham?

(18 Dec 2019, 11:25 am)Jamie M wrote Yes... many of us religiously do. If you have a bump and you're over the limit, you're obviously going to get a bollocking, more so than if you were driving legally.

Be stupid not to!

(18 Dec 2019, 11:37 am)streetdeckfan wrote Well I suppose so, but I've been on plenty of buses through Whickham where the driver has been going 30

(18 Dec 2019, 10:48 am)pbjd wrote Hopefully the new interworking will allow increased running times, although the introduction of more reliable buses would help too.

(18 Dec 2019, 11:38 am)Jamie M wrote What's your point?! That we should or shouldn't be speeding???

(18 Dec 2019, 11:48 am)streetdeckfan wrote I honestly prefer the drivers that have a heavy foot! (especially on the X21, some of the new drivers just dawdle along below the speed limit)

(18 Dec 2019, 11:56 am)Jamie M wrote You, my friend, are deluded.

Speed limits are in place for safety, it's not up to us to alter them. My point is that we need more time to cope and to stop so many drivers speeding. More running time = less rushing around.

The more time spent rushing, the more bumps and issues for drivers. This is a very serious and real issue, which is experienced when someone ends up being hurt, or worse.

I honestly don't believe what I'm seeing you say and advocating speeding or driving "with a heavy foot". It's disappointing to say the least that this has to be explained.

(18 Dec 2019, 11:46 am)Stanleyone wrote Don’t know if true but cascades of the red kite (Streetlites) have been rumoured

(18 Dec 2019, 2:50 pm)deanmachine wrote I would've guessed the Mercs displaced by the upcoming service changes, as well as the interworking. Guessing it means another brand being lost as well as the Toon Links.

Although, it depends on the Newcastle LEZ really doesn't it, do buses have to be Euro 6 to not get fined? I imagine it would be easier to upgrade a Streetlite than a Merc.

(18 Dec 2019, 3:32 pm)streetdeckfan wrote Aren't the Streetlites already at Euro 6?
And doesn't the proposal for the LEZ say they have to be both Euro 6 and newer than 2012
My memory isn't the best so I could be wrong on both fronts!
