Can’t see GNE amending their crown jewel of the 21 and when you’re that close to Newcastle….why would you park the car?
I don't think it will have any impact on GNE Crown Jewels as i'd imagine separate services would be set up from the Park & Ride prior to it becoming operational in which I would hope to see something popping on on Vosa in the coming months for a tender for potential services as the BSIP did stipulate this with services operating with Articulated Buses.
In Leeds you have Stourton Park & Ride which has Arriva Yorkshire Services 110/444 & 446 running straight past it and following the same route as the PR3 into Leeds City Centre from Wakefield Road then you further Arriva Services 140/140A/141/167 & 168 joining from Pontefract Road with no impact at all as the PR3 is only service to serve the Park & Ride, likewise the other Park & Rides at Elland & Temple Green are the same. Elsewhere same operation is in place in York for their various Park & Rides across the City and we have the same here in North East with the Park & Rides in Durham with others services stopping at nearby stops a short distance away.
