I know this should be on the service suggestion thread but what they COULD do if they withdrew the 307 is this:
- Change 17 to midibus size vehicles.
- Increase the frequency to every 15 minutes (30 evenings and Sundays) to ASDA continuing every 30 (60 evenings and Sundays) to Cramlington.
- Introduce a new half hourly service (hourly evenings and Sundays) between Cramlington and Whitley Bay operating the same route as the 17 to ASDA but operating via Fordley then follow the old 53 route to Whitley Bay from there.
- This would result in a bus upto every 15 minutes between Cramlington and ASDA and provide competition on the Cramlington to Killingworth corridor.
- Lost links would be reinstated to Rake Lane and North Tyneside from areas that used to be served by the old 53.
