This service will serve Easington.
X22. Sunderland - Grangetown - Ryhope - seaham - spectrum - dalton park - Easington village - peterlee - sherburn - durham.
This service will run hourly allowing the 22 to be hourly aswell.
There isn't really time to send the X21 via Easington Village and it can't be easily accessed from the A19 on Peterlee bound journeys, you would have to either come off at the junction for Dalton Park or Little Thorpe where you would have to go onto Easington Village and perform a loop back to Little Thorpe to reach Peterlee, either way both would simply make the service take longer.
The X22 running via Seaham seafront from Sunderland and Dalton Park would take considerably longer than the current 22 making the X prefix laughable, not to mention that the service number would clash with the peak time East Durham College X22 runs.
