But could there not be a Great North Road partnership agreement put in place to sort the Great Park issues out? Yes a PVR increase, but would actually work for passengers
- 43 every 15 mins as now
- 44 every 15 mins as now
- 45 every 15 mins as now
- NEW 46 every 15 mins Great Park to Haymarket via Gosforth operated by GNE
Nice clean 5 minute frequency from Brunton Park to Newcastle, all using electric vehicles. Gosforth issue sorted out and something else could pick up the Quayside / Eastern Part of the Q3.
35 could be put back through Jesmond.
Arriva aren't going to back that and why should they?
There's competition there for a reason, if GoNorthEast wants to try and make something from a corridor then that's on them but you can't expect them to be given it on a plate.
Either way if there was going to be any partnership then Stagecoach should have it anyway, with the 30/31/43/44/45/46 giving 24 buses an hour combined from Gosforth and the 46/X47 giving 8 BPH combined from the Great Park.
