- 21 revised to operate every 10 minutes between Durham and Newcastle throughout Monday to Saturday daytime.
- 21 revised to operate every 20 minutes between Durham and Newcastle between 7pm and 9pm - 9:30pm then every 30 minutes after that until last service.
- 21 revised to operate every 20 minutes between Durham and Newcastle until 7pm on a Sunday then every 30 minutes after that until last service.
- Coaster service 1 increased to every 15 minutes between Wrekenton and Gateshead Monday to Saturday daytime to assist with loadings and punctuality on the 21.
- Coaster services 1/1a revised to combine with Angel service 21 every 15 minutes between Low Fell and Newcastle after 9-9:30pm during the evenings and after 7pm on a Sunday.
Wrekenton or the surrounding estates don't need that level of service.
Keep the 1 as it is, send a 1a to Harlow Green Bridge and straight back round onto Durham Road, using the slip road on the other side of the bridge.
It doesn't improve reliability for anyone in Birtley though.
