62 back to new Marske . Reducing to an hour on an evening and Sunday 
X3 to serve boosebeck and lingdale avoiding Saltburn. But serve Redcar east estate like the 81 does. 
81 to revert back to Redcar to Stokesley. Utilising the bus stop they put in at Redcar outside Cooplands. 
X2 to serve Ings Farm, Marske Estate and Saltburn to Skelton Asda. 

Tees Flex to work as needed.

imo it would much easier to make it all work off the 5/5A instead.

I don't know how well the numbers are on the 5/5A but you could easily do something like

X5/X5A: Middlesbrough - NON STOP - Guisborough - Skelton - Skelton ASDA - Brotton - Skinningrove (X5A) - Loftus - Liverton Mines (X5) - Easington (2 BPH)
7: Current 5 Middlesbrough to Swans Corner Roundabout (3 BPH), 1 BPH extended to Lingdale

7/8/9: Every 5 minute combined Middlesbrough to Cranmore Road

Moorsholm and Liverton use Teesflex, the places aren't sustainable for a frequent bus service.
