Is there any demand for a direct service between Guisborough and Saltburn? Other companies have tried it and then withdrew their services. Arriva used to do it once upon a time going through Upleatham [268?]. There are now 2 bus options either via Skelton or via Redcar.
Enough to sustain a bus that terminates at either end, like the Stagecarriage service - probably not.
Enough to add to existing passenger numbers, carried on an the extension of an existing service such as the X3A - possibly.
If the X3A is carrying decent numbers already, surely the extension would only add to those numbers?
The diversion around Skelton that I proposed, would cover the same roads (although in a different order) and would only miss out two stops served currently.
