These contracts (the services I know as I don't use pcl but what I heard and pearsonal expirience as I got put off bu the driver's appauiling attitude towards me and my friend I don't want to use them) without futher ado routes and suggested contractor
T1- Arriva ashington depot (dart or solo) revised to hourly
T1A/B/C- Arriva blyth depot each route runs off a 2 each revised to hourly per service
S1/2 Arriva ashington depot (no changes dart or solo allocated
15/16 Arriva ashington depor(omnicity allocated)
470/473 border buses as previously suggested
882 gne (using optare solo srs)
The rest I don't know.
My suggestion of potential operators would be:
T1/A/B/C - Arriva Blyth - Each Journey would run off and onto the 2 adding 1 more bus to the PVR.
M1/A1 - These are commercial services, as such I can't have a say.
S1/S2: Withdrawn, Arriva to extend the 44 back to Morpeth under the hourly frequency.
15/16: Travelsure with a Optare Solo
815/882/885: Phoenix Coaches interworking with the 808.
613: Renumbered service 690 and will operate as normal between Hexham and Whittonstall, although will extend to Consett via Shotley Bridge. This service will continue to operate Tuesdays only.
689 Tuesday Journeys withdrawn and those will now operate as service 690.
267/464: Merged with 470/473 to form a combined service between Berwick and Alnwick via Wooler.
Hopefully if PCL was to collapse, hopefully similar suitable measures could be put in place.
