New idea 1 : 42R East Boldon Metro - West Boldon - Hindmarch Drive Estate - Boldon Colliery - Testos - Downhill Interchange - HMRC Waterview Park
3 Am runs from East Boldon at 07:15 08:15 and 09:00
The morning 9 am run can also help people living in Barmston get to other areas in the morning , since the 84 and 85 im pretty sure dont run till later on.
3 pm runs from Waterview Park at 15:30 16:30 and 17:10
Later runs can help people get back from areas like Boldon Colliery , East and West Boldon , and even Testos to link with East Washington
New idea 2 : BP1 Metrocentre - Oaklands Garden Centre - Winlaton Mill - Medomsley - Derwentside IRC
runs hourly until these times but at 16:00
Metrocentre Interchange 07:00
Oaklands Garden Centre 07:07
Winalton Mill Noel Av 07:11
Longclose Bank 07:18
Medomsley 07:20
Derwentisde IRC 07:24
Good for IRC workers of all shifts
Used so GCT doesnt need to extend the R3/R4/R5 and I think an R6 to the Metrocentre (The R2 is ran by GNE)
Good if you dont want to use the x's or the 47 towards Consett
New idea 3 : 357 Rosehill of licence - Battle Hill Drive Coast Road Turnoff - Silverlink Interchange - Holystone Roundabout - Northumberland Park Interchange
Made like the R2 , for people to get from there Estate or Village Front Street and Back
Good convieniance due to it being a short route
The first actual short route at Northumberland Pk Interchange
I swear there was a GNE bus also at Northumber Pk Interchange , but for some reason google maps only says the 19 stops there
