Worse still with the changes taking place this weekend there's lots of misinformation on it, showing timetables for Scarlet Band that they won on tender before they decided to close and some services they have just guessed the times such as the 108/109 and as such are showing incorrect times.

Worse still DCC haven't put out anything resembling a list of changes that are taking place this weekend which is not ideal when the likes of the 84/85/95/96 are changed considerably to the times they've previously been running to, one of the pages on the main DCC site still listing changes from August some of which were frequency reductions on Arriva services which are now being reversed on weekdays at least in most places.

Granted some of the companies could've maybe done a bit more to indicate services they're running, not heard a peep out of Hodgsons to indicate what they're running in County Durham from tomorrow, only thing noted is them taking on the 16 in Darlington although it doesn't help that the fallout left by Scarlet Band has meant everything has had to be picked up, planned, sourced etc very quickly which is far from ideal.

This was the reply I got back couple months ago:

Full .pdf downloadable timetables were planned to be available when we launched the new site a couple of weeks ago, but technical issues prevented this from happening at the time. The good news is that these issues are currently being fixed by the software supplier and .pdf timetables will be provided alongside the digital format soon.

The current site is will continue to be developed with other features will be rolled out in the coming months.

Any comments or suggestions on the new site would be much appreciated as they would help us to further develop the system. Please email any comments or feedback to transinfo@durham.gov.uk.

Maybe if a lot more people email DCC about there site then maybe things get done quicker , hope so anyway, yea there interactive map of Durham County was useful

Just wished GNE did the pdfs with the digital crappy timetables , even if the pdfs were just in black and white online only and not all glossed up in different colours of the rainbow and a tourist information leaflet.
