The 35 doesn’t need anymore diversion, it’s a long route enough from the days of the 535/536 serviceYou can say you can get X but then connect with X bus. (everyone does, but no one thinks about the price)

But that all great but it costs money for which, £1.80 from Sunderland - Peterlee (which is VERY cheap). Peterlee-Houghton £1.80 then Houghton to Sunderland is £1.80 it is double the fare. Which isn't going to make people jump for the bus. and Houghton & Hetton aren't the best places to change over for buses. They're not the nicest. Especially into the late evening.
