Basically, this suggestion links the two termini together to form a new circular service. The route between Doxford International and Pennywell would be: A690, Durham Road, Thornley Close Road, Thorndale Road, Tilbury Road, Tay Road, Gravesend Road, Gleneagles Road, Gartland Road, Sevenoaks Drive, Pennywell Industrial Estate and Prestbury Road (or Hylton Road - depending on which way the bus is routed in/out of Pennywell). Provides new links from Ryhope, Tunstall and Doxford Park/International to Thornley Close and Grindon in addition to an alternative/direct link to Pennywell.
