RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - LVK 404L - 22 Jul 2019 (22 Jul 2019, 6:28 pm)V514DFT The service you are describing from Blyth to Sunderland was the original 310 (not the 310 that operates now) with the original 319 operating Sunderland-Cramlington that was axed in 2007 so i imagine the 310 went along with it,but there was a 319 that operated Jarrow-Percy Main in 2010 but was axed,if i remember right there was a 9 and 9A,one went to Wallsend and the other went to North Shields and both operated to Sunderland,but dont know how long that lasted but i also remember a 59 operating Wallsend-Jarrow in 2010 then Wallsend lost its link through the tunnel completely Probably best for the Bygone Era. But the original 310 Blyth to Sunderland actually went a different route between Jarrow and Sunderland. It went via Brockley Whins. Biddick Hall, Boldon and North Sunderland Estates. Being replaced by 538 and 310 was altered to same route as 319. The original 319 did not actually do Cramlington to Sunderland but did in fact do Cramlington to Lukes Lane Estate. So Hebburn Lukes Lane albeit years later always seem to the "Thorn in the Side" that takes routes that were doing well elsewhere.

Also when the 59 operated Wallsend to Sunderland, the Shields route was numbered 59A. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - deanmachine - 28 Jul 2019 (28 Jul 2019, 10:02 am)GNE6312 New suggestion to cut down delays on all express services from Newcastle(X1/X9/X10/X21 only): Doesn't that kind of defeat the point of an Interchange? I'm still mad Stagecoach stop putting the X34 through there. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - WestDurhamSwift - 28 Jul 2019 (28 Jul 2019, 10:02 am)GNE6312 New suggestion to cut down delays on all express services from Newcastle(X1/X9/X10/X21 only): Its a shame the different transports don't intigrate. It would be so much easier for the majority of services coming from that direction to terminate at Gateshead interchange and then using the Metro to get into Newcastle. I tried it the other day, bar the cost, its so much more efficient and would make a alot of difference to time keeping and congestion. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - Andreos1 - 28 Jul 2019 (28 Jul 2019, 11:11 am)Arcticrossy92 Just like they used to prior to de-regulation. And you can get to parts of the town, that you can't (or is a chew on) by bus. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - BusLoverMum - 28 Jul 2019 (28 Jul 2019, 11:11 am)Arcticrossy92 Absolute pita for anyone needing to use the inadequate lifts at metro stations, though. RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - WestDurhamSwift - 28 Jul 2019 (28 Jul 2019, 11:49 am)BusLoverMum I think that aside, it makes complete sense from a 'public transport' point of view. Keeps buses on time, more reliable services, quicker access - get the lifts sorted ... and its all good! Like anything, I'm sure there are negatives, but the sitation at the moment of 5 Double decker buses crossing the tyne bridge half full every few minutes is just madness RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - Rob44 - 29 Jul 2019 I can see the over 60's and concessionary pass holders not been too happy either! Its a long walk from gateshead to newcastle and £1.80 alot to pay for 2 or 3 stops on the MEtro! RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - GNE6312 - 29 Jul 2019 87 Springwell village Washington Concord Sulgrave Sunderland highway North Hylton Hylton castle Southwick Fullwell Roker Roker beach Sunderland Every 30 mins This service will be allocated 6001-7/6049-55 when they leave the red arrows RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - NewcastleOne - 29 Jul 2019 (29 Jul 2019, 3:59 pm)GNE6312 Why would this need all of them to do this? And the B9s won’t be leaving the red arrows and springwell and other parts are already served in numbers.

Service 57 would operate Newcastle to Wardley only. North Shields: xx:08 / xx:38 Newcastle Arr: xx:00 / xx:30 Newcastle Dep: xx:08 / xx:38 North Shields Arr: xx:56 / xx:26 RE: Go North East: Service Suggestions v2 - L469 YVK - 11 Aug 2019 In addition to the above, the 9th board on a Sunday would be operated by Riverside Depot operating the following journeys on service 310 Newcastle: 10:08, 12:08, 14:08, 16:08 North Shields: 11:08, 13:08, 15:08, 17:06 This would provide the extra vehicle for the Sunday PVR increase without excessive idling times in North Shields as well as not requiring extra resources at Percy Main Depot. The Riverside board would most likely only require 2x drivers as well. The extra resource at Riverside would be available as a result of the Sunday 57 PVR reducing from 8x to 5x.
