What happened to the X5 then?!
I must be looking in the wrong place as cant see the new timetables on either the website or the app. But from what has been said it looks like they're doing something similar to whats been tried before - a short 5 only going to Guisborough, the long one going full distance. However, it does seem puzzling that as the reason given for changes was difficulty for the 5 to keep to time, am not sure how adding few extra passengers and diverting through Hollybush will help that. I wonder if only the 5A goes down Stokesley Road past the Voyager pub, leaving the 5 to follow the X93 route out of Guisborough onto the A171? Might save a few minutes I guess.
Still no word of a new bus to Skelton Asda and no express service to Middlesbrough during the day, but am told those things are under consideration for the future.
