RE: January 2025 changes
Absolutely buzzing to wait for my 61 and have three turn up at once because they all caught up to each other on Chester road! I have absolutely no clue why they have chose to merge the 61 with the 39? I can’t say anyone in murton/seaham is needing to be up pennywell for whatever reason apart from work and still keeping it at every half an hour too? Does this mean it wont call into park lane anymore then or will it do something like the 2? Into park lane on its way to pennywell and missing it out going to murton? Either way compared with the other changes the whole thing is a shambles. Nobody should have to wait an hour for a bus unless the ridership is destitute and it flys through the middle of nowhere, the least a service should be, combined frequency or not is every 30 mins. People aren’t going to be wanting to get the bus when the only one that takes them home is once an hour, this whole turn up and go thing is great if you live on a main road, but god forbid you live in an estate with houses like most people.
