Go North East North Tyneside Bus Review In January
Go North East are reviewing bus services across North Tyneside on 15th January 2012 to follow up on passenger feedback & changes to travel patterns. From this date the following changes will take place...
Service 1 (Coaster): Evening buses will now operate the full route between Whitley Bay and Gateshead so that customers will no longer need to change buses in North Shields. During shopping hours on Sundays buses will operate every 20 minutes. Buses continue to operate every 15 minutes during the daytime on Mondays to Saturdays.
Service 17/17A: A small number of late evening journeys funded by Nexus on service 17 between Holy Cross and Benton ASDA have been cancelled by Nexus and will no longer operate. On Sundays buses will continue to operate but will be operated by Nexus bus (timetable via Go North East page).
Service 58 (Citylink): This very busy route will now be operated by bendy buses, giving passengers more room and comfort, similar to those used on the Centrelink X66 Metrocentre route. The buses are still gold so very easy to recognise and the timetable will remain the same except for minor changes to the times of buses in the early morning and early evening on Monday to Saturdays.
Service N58 (Citylink): The night bus service that operates on Saturday night/Sunday morning will operate via Heaton providing students living in this area with a late night bus service and an extra journey at 0415 from Newcastle. The service will no longer operate to Whitley Bay.
Service 80 (North Tyne Links): Buses continue to operate every 30 minutes during the daytime on Monday to Saturday, with an improved service in the morn
ing for workers at Cobalt. In New York buses will run via Westminster Avenue and Norham Road North, maintaining a service along Westminster Avenue in place of services 85 & 86.
Service 85/86 (North Tyne Links): Services are withdrawn and replaced partially by service 310 between North Shields, Meadowell & Norham Road North, service 80 between Westminster Avenue, North Tyneside Hospital & North Shields, service 309 between New York, North Tyneside Hospital & Whitley Bay and service 1 between Whitley Bay, Cullercoats, Tynemouth & North Shields.
Service 310 (Cobalt Clipper): Additional buses will operate in the early morning on Monday to Saturday between Norham Road and North Shields, and every evening between North Shields, Meadowell, Norham Road and Cobalt partly replacing withdrawn services 85/86.
