That's good news however - To be submitted in January 2022, if successful a new fleet of 73 electric vehicles could be operating across the region, part of a phased approach to transform the region’s bus fleet.

So still have to wait.



Coast Road Corridor; serving Newcastle, North Tyneside and South East Northumberland

A167 Corridor, Newcastle, Gateshead, Chester-Le- Street and Durham City Centre.

Consett; serving the communities of Consett, Derwent Valley and Durham;

Durham Park and Ride: includes services from four park and ride sites, part of a package to improve public transport use and improve air quality

Hexham: centred on Hexham, also serving Allendale, East Tynedale, Haltwhistle, Mid Tyne, Ponteland and Prudhoe as well as parts of Cumbria and Tyne & Wear. It would serve towns and villages and connect to the World Heritage site of Hadrian’s Wall, Northumberland National Park and areas of outstanding natural beauty



Imagine electric buses on the AD122 though!
