Seems really overbussed around there from an outsider yet other areas are virtually busless like Coundon (down to hourly) yet 5 buses go via nothing. Massive areas of Spennymoor to the North and the West of Bishop Auckland which are virtually busless aswell.Yeah, there's still quite a decent load after the retail park.
You'd think they'd be better having a 'slow' bus which services some of them then maybe an X6 which does the X21 route but they work with it for a clean 4 BPH.
ie something like - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Carr+S...?entry=ttu
The whole of that route from end to end has pretty much has an absymal bus service and it's not as if it's going around fields.
Even going towards Durham there's usually a decent load by the time it's at Tindale.
Passenger numbers on the 6 do seem to have decreased though.
