Yea its a 30 min connection but you have other routes along that route that go the same/similar way53 went to Blyth before,it was then curtailed at Cramlington
Stagecoach X63,62,Arriva,52,54 all after the Quorum. The X7/X8 seem an odd route. Especially going back to when Killingworth Road was getting done.
I don't and will not understand why the X8 had to serve the Quorum/BT Business Center yet the X7 went straight along after the Quorum straight past FLE as the X8 had to sever Longbenton. Whatever sense that was
Like does nobody on the X7 route between Blyth and Annitsford use the Quorum/BT area. If that's the case. Send it straight up and through Longbenton. But then that's just the 54
Plus the X7/X8 are becoming less and less of an express with two more stops been added after Camperdown and Quorum
Express part is Killingworth Road to Newcastle Barris Bridge and that's it.
53 to Blyth I'd personally like to see. Dudley area used to have tons of buses going to Blyth. One only being the X8 now as its hard for people who live in Dudley have to travel up to Cramlington to Change to X9/X10/X11/X8
I only done the 1 last week so can't say but it was an okay journey after the "Hype" I had riding it
I don't understand the X9 at all. What's it meant to be..another competition route of the X10/X11 of who can get to Cramlington/Blyth Faster so I'm all for the withdrawal of that route
X19 sounds like a really good route. It would make a quick link to Newcastle
