If half hourly to the docks.... 33 route endings would be: Docks, City Centre - Docks - City Centre If hourly.... City Centre - Docks - City Centre - City Centre. Edit: Just noticed the 33 will not go Doxford anymore!

The peak timings could change - hopefully changes will be online soon, would guess in a few weeks time.

Starting to wonder if there will be a merger of services along Park Road or a variation that comes along say Villette Road - to integrate the services further.

Not sure, GNE are also changing the 39's route and times, along with a 39A - which i thought could of been the NEXUS funded ones but now it could be a different route to provide lost connections.... not sure though. Wouldn't mind more cross city services though. I think the 35/35A/36 changes could have something to do with the new bridge getting built.

There are 38 changes too.

Wonder if the X36 will be dropped to hourly along the full route? -------------- No more 2A?, seems to be a mistake, hopefully they don't drop the 2A part of the route... both services are always busy.

Since the 38 not extended to houghton, I would of thought the 2 38s per hour extended to the docks as a 38 and 38A.

I don't think it would work extending the 38 to the docks, the 33 is the best option as they already terminate in the City Centre. The 38 would have go past Wilkinson's, down Town Moor then the Docks, come back around which adds on time, not sure the 38 passengers would be happy, especially the ones which get off at Holmeside.

Not only that but the 38 extending would create an uneven 20/40 frequency either on the Docks section or have a half hourly 38 with the hourly 238 fitting in between 2 in a 15/15/30 frequency.

Ye, before NEXUS changed the contract and put it out as commercial, the frequency to the docks was going to be hourly, not sure what GNE have got down for it now. The 33 timetable shouldn't be bad to, if they've stuck to hourly on that section however we don't know the overall frequency of the 33, as the 33A looks to be gone and they are no longer extending it to Doxford.

Run the 35 through silksworth best option and itll match the sunday 35a RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 03 Apr 2016 (03 Apr 2016, 9:07 pm)biglugs@yahoo.com wrote Run the 35 through silksworth best option and itll match the sunday 35a The 33 will still be going though to Silksworth. The 35 or 36 shouldn't change - both of them are working, shame there is a route change coming up.. Hopefully its because of the bridge works or for when High Street West in the City Centre goes both ways.... RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - South Tyne Lad - 03 Apr 2016 Just been looking through the new 88/88A Timetable and all that's been changed is extra running time on some services and omitting Jarrow Morrison's before 9AM. Does anyone know what the allocation will be of the 88/88A? Yes there's the 8 Versa's but what will be allocated to the remaining one board?

Remains as Scania L94 - runs onto misc works, with a contractual requirement of a bus with a minimum capacity of 60.

Thanks Dan, though will it have to be a Non Roof Pod Scania due to the low bridge?

The low bridge is 10'6", so any single-deck vehicle operating on this service must be below this height. RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - NK53 TKT - 04 Apr 2016 Does anyone know what the new LOOP branding will look like?

RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - cbma06 - 04 Apr 2016 service 36 route from May: Castletown ring way-Sunderland-Silksworth-herringtons-houghton-chester-le-street. so during the day through silksworth as 36 and evening and sunday through silksworth as 35A RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 04 Apr 2016 (04 Apr 2016, 3:27 pm)cbma06 wrote service 36 route from May: Castletown ring way-Sunderland-Silksworth-herringtons-houghton-chester-le-street. Is this official? If so, why does GNE need the 33 and 36 to go through Silksworth during the day, unless the 33 is dropping to half hourly meaning the 33 and 36 will combine to provide a service every 15 minutes from Silksworth, the 36 however takes the long way to the City Centre, unless that changes................. Will the 36 not go to Town End Farm either? RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - cbma06 - 04 Apr 2016 (04 Apr 2016, 3:34 pm)Michael wrote Is this official? its official. service 36 starts at castletown and will not serve town end farm. service 36 still every 30 minutes. don't know the frequency of service 33 will be. service 36 will not serve the royal hospital, service 35 will still serve royal hospital RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - cbma06 - 04 Apr 2016 I don't use service 35 and 36, but do both services use southwick green? RE: Go North East: Upcoming Service Changes - Michael - 04 Apr 2016 (04 Apr 2016, 3:40 pm)cbma06 wrote its official. Why can't they just leave the services alone... no the wonder that MP is always moaning along with the passengers, how many changes now? So Hylton Castle are loosing both the 36 and 99 from May... they have to walk to the stop near the shops for the 35.....

The 36 should still go its normal route from Castletown to Park Lane.

The 99 is fully withdrawn. The 8 arrives at Hylton Retail Park shops at around 21 and 51 towards Sunderland. |
