Just checked the tt and wouldn't this come into effect on the 5th of January. Is there ant big changes

With the Northumberland Line now opening on the 15th December. We should more than likely see "short registration" put in place for 3 routes i know off

This being the 434 (Ashington Station)

&

X7/19/57 for Seaton Delaval as they have made 2 new bus stops next to the station

There is a timetable on Arriva's website for the X2, X3, X3A, 3 dated 5th January 2025 which appears to be the same as the existing timetable. According to the Traffic Commissioners' website the revised registration of 12 January 2025 is for a road closure. I do not have any further details.

Should be in the Stagecoach one. 787 is Stagecoach. 777 is Arriva

Interesting to see Arriva don't seem to be doing any January changes as non have been registered unless they come in late. Most i know current will be the 57 & X7 in Seaton Delaval once the new bus stops have been put in next to the station ad the outline & raised curb have been put in place

I checked Ashington station and could not find a raised curb anywhere so must mean the 434 won't serve the station car park even though I think it should. That bus stop up top of the bridge is stupid making the buses do a turn around on a random tarmac behind some buildings

Arriva's changes are always March and September to go with the tender contracts bar minor changes to try and sort out timetable issues like in November. Be surprised if that changes anytime soon.

Similar with GoNorthEast's Percy Main changes.

Believe Sunderland and South Tyneside's contracts are July so that would make them July / January hence the changes now.
