As well the 6:40 would give a good time to start in newcastle before 8, whereas the next bus 7:09 would give you 5 mins to get to your place of business.

Really the 29 should be half hourly between Kimblesworth and Newcastle, offer more workplace links to Team Valley, perhaps a 29A, which goes from Kimblesworth, on the A1, then through team valley, past Sainsburys to Gateshead and Newcastle.

I thought it was just Kibblesworth.

(01 May 2023, 1:03 am)Busu284 That would be fun to see
Nexus "hi do you know we are withdrawn your service even though you are clearly using it right now. Not like we care. We will fund a service then get rid of it in a year"
Nexus just don't care what the response is anymore. Example of the M6 in March. They withdrawn it even though so many people wanted it kept. I mean come on. They didn't even give the w2 the plans either for passengers who don't have a 51 on an evening anymore

(07 May 2023, 9:49 am)Washingtonian More cuts seen to bus services than in a first aid room. When is someone actually going to come up with some ideas to create new and successful services? It just seems to be going further and further backwards!

(07 May 2023, 12:58 pm)Storx In fairness I'm usually the biggest moaner but those two services are just completely pointless. I really don't see the purpose in either of them and it's no surprise no-one uses them. The Heworth one in particular just duplicates the 27 for most of it. The 99 is just a weird bus route as it serves commuter areas but ironically doesn't run during commuter hours so I'm not sure what it's exactly meant to be doing. We were talking about it awhile back.
Mind no doubt the money will be going towards the mess of the Metro instead.

(07 May 2023, 1:00 pm)Dan I hazard a guess any savings from the withdrawal of these services will be to cater for any potential cuts from operators with the loss of BRG at the end of June (and/or increases in tender prices following the significant pay increases given to drivers since last May).

(07 May 2023, 7:58 pm)Storx Fair points there to be fair. Isn't there money being allocated from the new money they've just got to fund some of the BRG?As I understand, the new BSIP money can't be used to support existing services.
