Its a similar £25 saving for non-ETC customers too.
I do take the point about Trimdon, and given that the villages are classed as 'East Durham', it seems seems daft that they aren't included in the East Durham saver.
I feel the Durham District Ticket may be wrongly priced now as other than the day ticket £6.50 all other tickets are cheaper than eg the East Durham Saver which is £5 a day, the £23 per week, £80 per month whereas the Durham District is £18.20 for a week, £60 per month.
I would enjoy it while you can as I can’t see Arriva leaving there prices as they will be losing a lot of money.
