Wouldn't say its all been a success since though. Mass reductions in Services but that's the same countywide not just here.I can see stagecoach doing the same with in the next decade possibly with in the next 2 - 3 Years if covid has hit them badly. Sadly can see Hartlepool going the same way only 6 regular services from the depot now and before lockdown two early morning works services ( which it seems unlikely to return). Service 1 could easily be done from Stockton along with at least half the fleet and remaining engineering with a small number of buses staying in Hartlepool at a small outstation on one of the Industrial estates to cover and act as spares to the remaining town services. With Alidi being built next to the depot can see stage coach selling it for retail units.
