Do you bus companies have code reds, blacks like train companies do?
If so, have they ever been declared?

From Wednesday 13 October, North Tyneside Council will permanently close Howard Street and Northumberland Square. As a result, there will be some minor changes to the routes of some of our services in North Shields. Times of buses will remain unchanged

Towards Whitley Bay, service 1 will operate via Saville Street and Stephenson Street, resuming the normal route from there, no longer serving Howard Street.

A new bus stop will be placed on Stephenson Street to replace the stop on Howard Street.Towards Gateshead, service 1 will operate via Albion Road and Church Way, resuming the normal route from there, no longer serving Northumberland Square.

To replace the stop on Northumberland Square, service 1 will now serve the bus stop on Albion Road

Towards Whitley Bay, service 11 will operate via Saville Street, Stephenson Street, Albion Road, Church Way, resuming the normal route from there, no longer serving Howard Street and Northumberland Square.

A new bus stop will be placed on Stephenson Street to replace the stop on Howard Street, and service 11 will now serve the bus stop on Albion Road to replace the stop on Northumberland Square.

There is no change to the route or bus stops towards Wallsend.

Can someone explain to me how Peterlee Depot works? Like is there a office?

Didn't know where else to put it

Why does the X66 no longer go down past the Centrelink and up Rabbit Banks Road

Thought it'd be easier to have a general thread, rather than the posts being lost across various threads.

We've seen continuing the impact of a national driver shortage on the bus industry over recent weeks, we've seen energy firms starting to go bust because of the price of gas, and now we have hysteria and panic buying on petrol. 'Fuelled' by the media...

We can only hope that people use their loaf before going out to panic buy bread...
