Temporary closure of Thorne Road/ Tilbury Road junction, affecting Service 23

On Monday 19 May 2014, Tilbury Road will be closed at the Thorne Road junction to enable highways remodelling works.

Last Updated: 15 May 2014 12:05 PM

During periods of the closure, buses will be unable to serve their normal bus stops at the west end of Thorney Close (on Thorne Road west of Thistle Road, on Tadcaster Road or on Theme Road).

During closure periods, buses will instead terminate at Tilbury Road/ Tay Road. Customers are advised to use the bus stops east of the Tilbury Road/ Tay Road junction in order to access Service 23.

Clearly, whilst we will be endeavouring to operate all services in accordance with their published timetables, as well as continuing to liaise with our colleagues at Sunderland City Council to mitigate any problems, there is nonetheless the potential that some trips may be subject to delays.

Stagecoach would like to apologise for any inconvenience these essential works by Sunderland City Council may cause, and we remain grateful for customers’ patience and understanding.

Services Affected: 23
