RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 12 Feb 2015 Resurfacing in Castletown - 17th February http://www.simplygo.com/news/resurfacing-in-castletown-17th-february RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 14 Feb 2015 Serious question here folks, if Arriva don't up their game in Northumberland and run the 57 reg heaps of sparkling crap into the ground, do you think GNE could take Arriva on not just Ashington to Newcastle, but other routes too? I know they've got the local links but GNE offer far more outside of S.E Northumberland (Ten, Ttx, Angel, Red Arrows, NPower and if you miss the 19, 309/X39).

I'd assume not a lot. I doubt GNE would, if they were to introduce routes, use anything more unreliable and tired than the 57-reg Enviro 400's.

I'd assume not a lot. GNE have in the past already tried Northumberland routes with the bargain bus range of services between Newcastle - Blyth and Newcastle - Ashington and after purchasing Northumbria Coaches Newcastle - Morpeth/Thropton/Rothbury. I don't think GNE will be in a rush to move back into these routes again. in my option if GNE did move into there patch Arriva are far bigger and will move buses from other regions (loads of London stuff coming off soon) and flood the area with extra buses/services. RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 16 Feb 2015 (12 Feb 2015, 6:52 pm)Michael wrote Resurfacing in Castletown - 17th February Just little more on this... it seems on the NEXUS site that during this closure a free shuttle will run... 17 February 2015 - Routes 35, 35A, 36, 99, 73, 135 and 136 – Grange Road, Castletown, Sunderland Ringway and Grange Road, Castletown will be closed for resurfacing works between 8am and 6pm on Tuesday 17 February and Wednesday 18 February. Go North East service 35 and Nexus secured service 35A will omit Grange Road and Broadway turning circle with buses from Sunderland turning right from Brown Road/Ethel Terrace into Hylton Castle Road and those from Hylton Castle turning left from Hylton Castle Road into Brown Road/Ethel Terrace. Go North East services 36 and 99 and Nexus secured services 135 and 136 will omit Ringway and Grange Road and will divert between Brown Road/Ethel Terrace and Ferryboat Lane via Baron's Quay Road, A1231 Wessington Way and Ferryboat Lane South in both directions. Nexus secured service 73 from Sunderland will divert from Fawcett terrace via Barrons Quay Road, A1231, Ferryboat Lane to roundabout, U-turn at roundabout, Ferryboat lane and back to route. Service 73 from Washington will divert from Ferryboat lane, U-turn at roundabout, Ferryboat lane, A1231, Barrons Quay road to Fawcett Terrace then as route. A free shuttle service will operate during the closures. RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 18 Feb 2015 PB0003954/628 - GO NORTH EAST LIMITED, 117 QUEEN STREET, GATESHEAD, NE8 2UA Registration Accepted by SN Starting Point: Hexham Bus Station Finish Point: Haltwhistle Railway Station Via: Service Number: AD122 Service Type: Normal Stopping/Hail & Ride Effective Date: 03-APR-2015 Other Details: Daily from 3RD April to 27TH September 2015 RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - S813 FVK - 19 Feb 2015 Diversions to 15/15A this weekend: http://www.simplygo.com/news/closure-of-eastern-lanchester-21st-february RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 19 Feb 2015 http://www.simplygo.com/news/closure-of-a19a1231-roundabout-24th-february Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - S813 FVK - 20 Feb 2015 (19 Feb 2015, 8:22 pm)Robert wrote Diversions to 15/15A this weekend: Langley Lane is a road that isnt very wide and has a lot of overhanging trees - won't be surprised if the services have a full Venture SR allocation on Saturday like they do on evening and sundays. Obviously, one SR will be missing (possibly 2 with the 689) meaning a couple of deckers would be allocated to the Ventures instead. RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - L469 YVK - 20 Feb 2015 Just saw 309 changes on NCC. No journeys cut but GNE could easily fill those B9s up more if they did the following: - Retime all Monday to Saturday 309 / 310 journeys to ensure that they arrive 2 minutes before Arriva at Haymarket and 2 minutes after for the most part of the day. - Retime all evening journeys to arrive at 02, 17, 32, 47 and depart at 05, 20, 35, 50. This would mean a frequency increase for both services to every 30 minutes during the evenings. - Retime all Sunday daytime journeys to arrive at 11, 26, 41, 56 and depart at the same times past and to the hour as the evening journeys. - Make the last 309 to Blyth 2220 and the last 309 (310 on a Sunday Night) at 2320 and last 310 (not on a Sunday Night) at 2335. - Split the 309 and 310 / X39 at all times bar a Sunday daytime and bring a B7 over from Riverside as a spare or 6100 if reliability improves on the Fab 56.

RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 20 Feb 2015 The 19 is also changing from that date to: On route 19, Ashington - North Shields via Cramlington and Cobalt, some extra early and late journeys are introduced from and to Ashington. http://www.northumberland.gov.uk/idoc.ashx?docid=772714fc-c21b-4f6d-b9e5-874b00b864e5&version=-1 RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 20 Feb 2015 http://www.simplygo.com/service-disruptions/emergency-closure-of-high-west-street-in-gateshead-22nd-february/ RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - S813 FVK - 21 Feb 2015 15/15A diversion: RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 21 Feb 2015 (21 Feb 2015, 11:07 am)Robert wrote 15/15A diversion: Decent diversion!

As i was saying the other day, Langley Lane has a few overhanging trees and isn't very wide so hope 2 buses don't need to pass eachother!

Sorry to disappoint, Tommy, but no bus wars this time! RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 23 Feb 2015 The 128 timetable has a pic of the balloon tram from Beamish RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Jimmi - 23 Feb 2015 (23 Feb 2015, 5:31 pm)Dan wrote Very well done to Crusader, who quite rightly guessed the changes would relate to peak time traffic congestion. Where's my acknowledgment for guessing the 28/28A timetable changes would be it running to Beamish Museum entrance for the summer? I'm aware it was pretty obvious but that's not the point!

At least GNE are being dilligent unlike a certain green bus that supposedly gets good layover time in Newcastle during PM peak but always ends up 10-15 minutes late due to it not getting any additional time for schools and between Station Road and Newcastle. At least the 309 / 310 will run 6 minutes behind the 306 / 308 to Newcastle on a Sunday daytime now after 22nd March rather than 2-3 minutes. That'll also mean 8 mimutes after the 306 / 308 too towards Shields and Blyth. RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Andreos1 - 23 Feb 2015 Hopefully this new awareness of traffic around major employment sites and adapting the timetable to suit means we see something done with the 93/94 RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Dan - 23 Feb 2015 (23 Feb 2015, 9:46 pm)Andreos1 wrote Hopefully this new awareness of traffic around major employment sites and adapting the timetable to suit means we see something done with the 93/94 There's about five GNE Red buses which drop onto the 93/94 on evenings after working other services - I think that's meant to help things out reliability-wise.
