If the 308 ran every 10 mins, and the 306 every 10 mins, and then the 305 from Billy Mill every 30 minutes, would that not mean a bus more frequent than every 5 minutes at certain times within the hour.
I have to say, whilst I enjoy (and laugh) reading some of the suggestions here and also on the GNE/Stagecoach threads about service suggestions, lets all remain in the real world....please
No, the 305 would run on Sunday Daytimes. Do you know how the 21 runs to CLS every 10 minutes then onto Durham every 30 minutes on Sundays, that's how it would work on the Coast Road only on Sunday Daytimes between Billy Mill and Newcastle. It would be something like this from Haymarket on a Sunday :
00 (308BLYTH), 10 (305B.MILL), 20 (306W.BAY), 30 (308BLYTH), 40 (305B.MILL), 50 (306W.BAY)
