All places I've been to (don't you just love hub and spoke) since March on a fairly frequent basis and places I would expect cleaning to take place. I've not seen anyone.
I'm not saying the cleaning doesn't happen, but see my comments in the reply above to Adrian.

I don't think anyone is in place at Heworth or The Galleries - most services travel through these bus stations, rather than terminate here. They're definitely in place at Park Lane, Gateshead, Eldon Square and Consett (possibly/probably more, too).

One of the reasons these cleaners are in place are to re-assure passengers, exactly as you state.

I was in Consett Bus Station on 27 August and took 6118 out of service (at approx 1:30pm) with a new bus entering service, and a driver jumped on-board and cleaned the touch-points on the bus... So I have seen it with my own eyes too!
