(01 Jul 2022, 10:42 am)Storx wrote imo the 25 should be scrapped and replaced by the 81 running all day and extended to Newcastle. It's a right mess the routes around there.I dont actually get why the 82 isnt half hourly during the day given how busy the Birtley/Portobello/Ayton/Lambton/Galleries section can get.
25 - Hourly by GNE
81 - Hourly by GNE in the evening and Sundays and extended to Sunderland only on a Sunday.
82 - Hourly by JH Coaches during the day
All over the place especially when it comes to tickets.
imo the following would be better:
77 - Washington to Stanley only additionally serving the 25 route between CLS - Vigo Lane and rejoining the route under the A1(M) then Picktree Lane South (Mon - Sat Day, Every 30 Minutes, Mon - Sat Evenings and Sun Hourly)
7 - Sunderland to Newcastle via 8 route Sunderland - Washington, 82 route to Portobello, 25 route after there to Newcastle (Mon - Sun Hourly)
8 - Sunderland to Birtley via 8 route Sunderland - Washington, then 82 route to Birtley (Mon - Sat Daytimes Hourly)
