Full route should be every 15 mins - would only require 7 buses (i think)
20/20A needs to sort its reliability out first before anything, everyday i see the 20/20A run together
GNE frequent 10 minute frequency on most of there routes, theres always going to be 2 buses together at certain times of the day, theres no way to keep them spread out, unless you run empty to certain destinations along the route, then you get the passengers on facebook saying the bus didn't stop and it was not in service and I waited 30 or 40 minutes etc... for a bus on a 10 minute frequency.
And when drivers run light to get back on time, there don't always tell control aswell, this is why on facebook the reply to passengers saying theres been no problems on that certain bus service.
I think service 20/20A could go on a 15 minute service between Sunderland and Durham when there get the double deckers ( 20x2 20Ax2 per hour).
