On the subject of these changes mentioned today I like the 29 and 42 in there present form. I'd be disappointed if we lose these
That's a bit quick if it's starting in January... here is the list of proposed changes: From NEBCD Malarkey
I played it the clever way and stated that was a Bus Enthusiast representing a Local Forum known as NEB, I also stated that the Consultation was a Topic of Conversation on Forum at Present, and proceeded to show the GNE Employee this Thread, and as he was quite impressed by my Interest and Enthusiasm towards the Consultation, he kindly wrote every single proposed Service Change on the back of the Questionaire, and I can see that quite a few missing from the list which I have Highlighted in your Post Dan, so I will update below, I also provided him with a few Suggestions of my Own, which he politely took off me and said he would pass it on to Management.
The Changes are therefore as follows.
Old Service 33 (Magic Roundabout) will be Reinstated with an Extension to Doxford Park replacing the 29
20/20A will replace the Laser 35s between Sunderland and South Shields, Sunderland to Durham link has no Changes
Laser 35s will Operate from Low Moorsley to Boldon Asda replacing the 29, the other 35 will be Numbered 36 and will Operate from Town End Farm to Houghton le Spring via Sunderland and Extend down from Houghton to Chester le Street replacing Service 71
Silver Arrows 2A/2C will Extend from Sunderland to Silksworth replacing Service 42
Service 38 will Extend from Tunstall Village to Houghton le Spring replacing the 238
X36 will be Reduced to an Hourly Frequency between Sunderland and Newcastle, but will remain Half Hourly between Sunderland and Downhill
As for the 99, I wasnt told anything about that one I am afraid
