I don't get what the complaint here is. Surely though even if this plan goes through. Surely nexus won't already have an evening & Sundays service thought of already

I imagine because those living in the Melbury/Warkworth Woods sections of Great Park aren't best pleased at being cut off entirely on evenings and Sundays. It's also difficult/impossible for people to get to Regent Centre in time to connect with the 553 for morning shifts at the Freeman. 

For everyone on the other side of the A1 (the 'main' part, realistically), these changes are improvements in just about every way. More frequent, better evening services, quicker journey times, and links to Kingston Park. An improved 49 (earlier and later journeys) would pretty much solve all issues people have with these changes.
