8 - City Centre - Chester Road - Barnes - Springwell Road - Durham Road - Gilley Law - Hourly
18: Grindon - Pennywell - South Hylton - Hospital - Southwick - Seaburn - Hourly
Wouldn't be surprised if the 18 is changed again, sometimes its only ever busy on a morning, they might as well just remove it, its one of those services which just cuts through other routes.
I can't see the 18 changing that much to be honest, there is always a handful of people on it when I see it round my way but the 18A doubles up as a school bus for St Aidan's so I doubt that would be changed even if the 18 is. If theres any changes I imagine just minor timetable adjustments.
