Service 35/35A: Morpeth – Ashington – North Seaton – Newbiggin
All journeys will run via North Seaton Demesne, giving Manley View, Summerhouse Lane and South Side new frequent links to Ashington, Morpeth and Newbiggin.
Buses will continue to run up to every 15 minutes on Monday to Saturday daytimes (hourly in the evening and on Sundays). However, there will be minor alterations to the timetable to improve punctuality and as a result of the route change at North Seaton.
Service 57 will continue to serve North Seaton Demesne as now. However, over the next few months, we will be consulting customers and local residents about alternative destinations for this service.
Service 57 to be rerouted?
Now that the 35/35A serves the Demesne, and that nobody uses the 57 on Alexandra Road, they'll probably cut it back to Ashington and have it serve the Cramlington A&E entrance.
Might get a surprise, Arriva seem to be doing more for local residents, as the 1 will go to Cresswell on Sundays.
