Seeing as Stagecoach have already decimated Sunderland's Network, there's effectively not much to improve, although would be nice to improve the network a little.

X1: Service would be improved to better co-ordinate with local facilities on the route, with a new daytime frequency of up to every 30 minutes. This would improve direct access between Doxford Park & the International with Sunderland City Centre, aswell as offer a faster alternative to service 4 from the local areas at Doxford Park.

Only early morning journeys will serve Sunderland Interchange between 6am til 9am.

The service will continue to commence from John Street. Between Sunderland City Centre and Barnes Park the service will not serve any stops, although will call at every stop afterwards, acting as a direct replacement for service 4 on the Durham Road section of the route.

This service would operate every 30 minutes (Mon - Sat Daytimes & every 60 minutes Evenings & Sunday's)

(Sunderland City Centre | Barnes Park | Durham Road Shops | East Herrington | Doxford International | Moorside | Doxford Park Shops | Hall Farm | Mill Hill | Doxford Park Shops)

3: This service is withdrawn. Replaced with revisions to service 4/13/X1.

4: Service is extended to serve Town End Farm & Hylton Castle for all journeys, replacing service 3. This service will also serve Gilley Law & Allendale Road opposed to East Herrington, with that section of route covered by service X1.

(Hylton Castle | Town End Farm | Downhill | Southwick | Sunderland City Centre | Barnes Park | Durham Road Shops | Plains Farm | Gilley Law | Allendale Road | Doxford Park Shops | Hall Farm | Mill Hill | Doxford Park Shops)

8: New Daytime extension To Grangetown & Leechmere Asda and Industrial Estate.

This service will no longer serve Keel Square or John Street with journeys instead serving Stockton Road and Burdon Road. The service would then follow the current 11 route to Grangetown, before then turning left to Leechmere Asda and Industrial Estate.

Evening and Sunday contracted journeys will continue as normal.

10: This service will run every 15 minutes between Pennywell and Grangetown, with Evening & Sunday buses running every 30 minutes. The service will terminate at the Alexander Hotel at Grangetown, while continuing the circular loop around Pennywell.

11: This service is withdrawn, replaced with daytime extension on service 8 & increase in frequency to service 10.

13: This service is revised to only operate between Town End Farm and Farringdon. The Doxford Park section will be covered by Services 4 & X1.

20: Service would be reduced in frequency to every 15 minutes, although between Hylton Road and Sunderland there will be eight buses per hour when combined with service 10.

The reduction in frequency on this route, will enable the extra bus to be added to service 8.

Evening journeys on this service would be revised to operate at a new 45 minute frequency after 19:00, ensuring that service provision with the resources available can continue to be fulfilled.

Services 4/10/13/16/20/23 will operate to an every 15 minute daytime frequency.

Services 8/E1/E2/E6/X1/X24 will operate to an every 30 minute daytime frequency.
