The Brasside Estate still has the 64.
I think there are still some houses up there as thanks to an Arriva driver who had the wrong destination on the screen on the 7A I went up there once, although some could walk and get the 64.
It's kinda like when the 16/16A was withdrawn School Aycliffe now only has a limited service to Heighington and Newton Aycliffe on weekdays only with people going to Darlington often walk to Heighington to get service 1 to Darlington while most concession pass holders will get the 116 to either Aycliffe or Heighington then another bus to reach Darlington and will often get the peak time only 16A from Darlington to School Aycliffe home on an evening. Also Burnhill Way lost its service to Tesco and many of the people who boarded at Burnhill Way were elderly and can't get the 7 to the Town Centre then walk to Tesco because its too far for them. Ideally a better town route is needed in Newton Aycliffe as Woodham are often saying that they want a bus to Tesco.
