But yes appears that maybe the 29 could be a replacement for the short 39's, 38's & 26's? Running Doxford Int-Tunstall Bank Est-Hollycarrside-Leechmere-City Centre-Southwick-Castletown-Hylton Castle-Town End Farm-Downhill-Boldon with the secured buses running to Heworth (like the 26A does currently?)
Running down the A19 would be too obvious?
But yeah, that 29 route was pretty much my thinking too.
Two services with the same number - have they had a whack on the head with the Arriva hammer?
