I had hoped the changes to the X45 would have increased reliability on an evening. As its a service used by my son and daughter frequently on an evening and there is only 1 per hour to Consett it is regularly 30 mins late, no doubt due to the impossible to keep to timetable.
Both buses on there tonight are again 30 mins late.
How are the public meant to have any confidence in bus travel when they aren't even sure a once an hour bus is going to turn up?!
