The Eden of West Auckland: S555FJM by Matthew Jimmison, on Flickr
Cobblers Hall Roundabout in Newton Aycliffe (Woodham) is currently closed for resurfacing works between 7am and 7pm between July 17th and July 21st, as a result Arriva North East's Sapphire service 7 is unable to serve Woodham and is diverting Burn Lane, Middridge Road between Burnhill Way and Home Farm. Durham County Council is providing a shuttle service for Woodham which is being operated by The Eden and connects to/from Arriva service 7 at the Burnhill Way Roundabout bus stop. Solo S555 FJM was operating this service today.

I've shopped in Bishop Tesco before in the past and last time I was there I think I can recall picking up a leaflet that said the Tesco free bus was being withdrawn and passengers were to use Arriva's Sapphire 6 instead - not sure if anyone can confirm whether this is the case or not?
