95 amended to not operate into Sainsbury’s or Eskdale Estate - also operating into Whitby via New Bridge as new reg’s on vehicular access to the swing bridge come into affect.
The section around Eskdale Estate and the bit down to and over the swing bridge will now be on the 96 route, which is reduced to 3 return trips per day and will now be operated by 21 Transport.
Think most of the remaining changes from April 6th is just minor changes to timings, mainly just at peak times, plus the start of summer season on Whitby services.
Following the survey last year, service 56 will now operate in a loop from Coundon running direct along the A688 to Tindle Crescent and will then head into Bishop Auckland Town Centre.
