Unless I'm missing something; Ouston, Kibblesworth and Dunston View, don't have a service to Newcastle anymore since you've took away the 28/29 and whatever X's going through Whickham these days? Also there's no bus service from Washington, on the existing 8 corridor towards Sunderland either?
That's before imo:
Shotley Bridge to Newcastle is way too slow
Stanley to Metrocentre is way too slow
The 2/8 are duplicating each other
The 32/78 are duplicating each other
The estates of Winlaton/Blaydon lose their direct Newcastle link. I don't disagree with sending a bus up that way though, to be fair.
Ah I see why you think that, I forgot to put which routes they would replace and that if something wasn't mentioned it will be covered in my other areas that's in doing.
In terms of Ouston & Whickham, I have a fix for that which will be addressed when I can be bothered to type up my next area changes. But anything I have put in will replace any current routes unless stated like with the V5.
This answers your question about the 8 duplicating the 2 and the 7 duplicating the 32.
And I feel like my routes are still faster than the 6 (which goes around the world) and a lot easier to understand than the current X30/X31/X32/X70/X71/X72/X73
Regarding the 46/47 they will take the roughly the same amount of time as now. The 46 is slightly longer than what the X45 is now but only takes 5-10 mins extra to go via Burnopfield.
Appreciate your opinion though
