(24 Feb 2019, 12:52 pm)Andreos1 When they're on, I am sure they could work on improving the W services in Whitley Bay and 333.
I would argue there's a bit of duplication within the W services and could look to improve revenues/margins (footfall) at the same time.
W2 and W3 to merge (along with western elements of W1), with some slight variations to routes.
W1 and 333 to merge (using the northern section of Broadway as the link) and 333 to serve Front Street in Tynemouth, before going back to its normal route, passing Linskill.
On the Fish Quay, it will serve the ferry in both directions and omit Brewhouse Bank.
I know it would be difficult as it's two different operators and two different councils subsiding the services however the W2 would be better to merge with the 58. Then have a long extended bus route.
Cramlington -> New Hospital -> Seghill (Change From East Cramlington) -> Seaton Delaval -> New Hartley -> Seaton Sluice -> Whitley Bay Metro
This would create lots of new links such as:

Got a lot of good ideas, would like to get a operators license and run some of them, but would need to win the lottery ????

I’ve a feeling there were proposals to close the Fish Quay to traffic so this would solve the problem for the 333. Of course there are plans to move the ferry landing to the Fish Quay so problem then would be how to serve that with a connecting bus.
The 335 seems a good idea, the traffic lights at ASDA are dreadful so it would eliminate standing there twice on the current double run. It seems to provide more shopping links which would help increase loadings. Hopefully different operators for both!

Kids go free on the Metro and Shields Ferry this summer.
When accompanied by a fare paying adult.
Some proposed changes from Nexus now listed at https://www.nexus.org.uk/consultation
To save people lots of clicking between the different pages, the proposals are:
11 (evening & Sunday) divert route to serve Ferry Landing/Fish Quay in place of service 19.
19 (evening & Sunday) to withdraw.
32A (evening & Sunday) to withdraw evening services. Sunday service reduce to hourly and extend to/from Walker.
33/33A to amend route to serve Shieldfield and Northumbria University.
44 to remove the Saturday 06:03 Dinnington - Newcastle journey.
91 to be retimed. 09:00 from Newcastle and 17:38 from Team Valley to be withdrawn.
333 to withdraw.
335 to extend to Ferry Landing/Fish Quay in place of 333.
351 new service to replace 359, Mon to Sat hourly service from Backworth Shrewsbury Drive to Whitley Bay Metro via Heritage Green, Northumberland Park, Earsdon Village, Sainsbury’s West Monkseaton, Beaumont Park, Whitley Lodge and Whitley Bay Town Centre
359 to withdraw, replace with new 351.
552 curtail 06:43 from Brunswick Village to start at Regent Centre at 07:20 instead (10 mins later at Regent Centre to allow time for connecting services).
553 to withdraw the 06:53 Wallsend - Freeman Hospital and 16:46 Freeman Hospital - Battle Hill.
643 to allocate subsidy to allow the service to continue.
K1 to withdraw.
K2 to revise route to additionally serve Forest Hall Shops.
W3 revise to serve Murton village.
My opinion if there will be good enough
11 I think would do well plus it gives a full route along the Fish Quay that the 333 does not do on a Sunday
32A seems okay but is there really a demand for it to run any further than Newcastle (to Walker)
33/33A seems like a good option. No need for it to serve the route it currently does as there's to many services that run its route into town (next to Jesmond(if that makes sense)
44 & 91 can't say as don't know what passengers numbers are like
333 had some complain about its route change back in July there's that factor to consider
335 I saw quite a few people ask for it to be extended to the fish Quay as the 333 & 335 never linked up in time at North Shields
351 I think would do really well as it gives people a link to Whitley Bay (also plus) it serves Whitley Bay Metro
359 can't really say for passengers numbers round Marsden
552&553 can't really say for passengers numbers
643 not to sure. Seems a bit busy when I've been at the Metrocentre
K1 & K2 might have a problem with the K1 but seems okay to me
W3 I'd say it might do well

Question here is. These changes to services that nexus have put up. Is there any PVR change to any of them at all
Also would the 351 go to Go North East or go to Gateshead Central Taxis
Is the 33/33A staying with Go North East or going to Gateshead Central Taxis
