RE: post 621
I find arriva day and weekly tickets a mish mash of some quoting zones i.e. triple zone or local areas i.e. Durham Darlington Surely a zone system of letters or numbers would be more appropriate and be easier for drivers to check and could be in large enough print to make this an easy read. Ticket variants are introduced and amended e g Bishop Area ticket extended to Durham and Crook and Durham District well extended beyond what could be considered as LOCAL.At the last price rise the All Zones went up to £7.30 which customers expected and accepted but this was closely followed by the Durham County ticket which apparently should have been available at the price rise but was late.These two tickets are confusing and unnecessary as you can travel in and out of Teesside and Darlington with a County ticket The X1 ticket is exceptional value and is available also on the No1 covering areas where X1 does not even go eg parts of Shildon and Heighington Also the X1 now goes to Tow Law leading to overriding as the X1 ticket was introduced to be used from Crook Market Place It seems tickets are introduced by marketing or amended without consideration as to they will work in practice
