Roadworks at Roker Terrace are currently happening , both Roker Terrace bus stops are out of use so probably routes 700 and E1 will be diverted.

Is it just me or is the 558 Dene Estate-Heworth Interchange bus route always late ! for example I get on at North Guards , Chicks Lane and there the route is late by a minimum of 20 minutes , never have I seen this bus on time !

And the old TB933 from Winlaton-Team Valley , I was basically the only passenger on it untill one day somebody took the service back to Winlaton , every time I took it , it was late by a minumum of 15 minutes.

Don't forget about the temporary S1 from South Shields to Little Haven Hotel , zero passengers , and late by a minumum of around 12 minutes , it never worked for me !

Need any help with this

My mate has spotted on his way to work a 65 plate plain red Citaro O295 passing Cobalt heading towards Shiremoor. The dest just said "123 Hanover"

He passed it so couldn't see the legals and it wasn't in service. Any idea or update or if anyone knows who's it is

I had an appointment at South Tyneside Hospital this morning and noticed a bus stop (complete with Nexus flag) near the main entrance coming from Harton Lane inside the hospital grounds.

Anyone with knowledge of the South Tyneside network know what service(s) used this stop and when did they cease? I've never noticed the stop before and it seems in pretty good condition (paint wise etc). No timetable boards were evident and I forgot to note the stop number.

Probably deserves it's own thread. Not much to say yet as it's just rumours atm.

Can't imagine ex Loftus / Redcar drivers being very happy about that commute though, if true. It's as bad as Jesmond to Blyth / Ashington and Chester Le Street to Washington / Riverside and both those went down very badly.
