Arriva North East: Latest News & Discussion - October 2015
(17 Oct 2015, 8:35 pm)Jimmi wrote Hate the Darlington 5/5A, takes far too long to get from Darlington to Newton Aycliffe these days, think it's totally silly that it's timetabled to take 34 minutes to get between these two points, it should take 31 minutes tops, you nearly always end up sat at timing points for what feels like forever. Got the 18:00 5 from Darlington Town Centre this evening and I couldn't help but think that I could have gotten the 7 which left 3 minutes before the 5 and despite having to walk home from the nearest bus stop for the 7 I could have gotten home nearly 10 minutes earlier rather than been shaken to death on 1426 at Newton Aycliffe Town Centre for around 5 minutes!

What changes would you suggest? I know the 5/5A don't take the most direct route but it serves the purpose.
