Furthermore I think the 50 should follow the Arriva 64 around Durham City Centre rather than serving the Bus Station, surely its losing out on potential passengers between Durham & Arnison Centre to the 64.
Only thing with having the 50 stop at North Road rather than Durham Bus Station is it would leave from a different place to the other Chester-le-Street services so that may lose passengers but at the same time it may pick up more passengers heading to Arnison Centre and the Newton Hall area, not sure how many will get on the 14 to the Arnison Centre rather than the 64 but I am not sure if it would be worth moving the 50 onto North Road.
