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.
5 is unchanged except for serving Hollybush. Additional time has been added into the service and 5s will now operate separately to the 5A (an unchanged PVR - but rather than 9 doing both routes, 6 will be on 5s and 3 will work 5As).
The 5A route in Guisborough will be the same as the daytime 28 route except towards the Market Place the 5A will turn into Rectory Lane to serve the Sainsbury’s Store, entering the Market Place via Bow Street.
