RE: Stagecoach North East
September changes in Newcastle...

Service 1: Monday to Saturday daytime buses are revised to once again run up to every 7 1/2 minutes between Four Lane Ends and South Benwell, with alternate buses continuing every 15 minutes to Slatyford via Scotswood.

Service 12: So we can continue to offer customers the most reliable service, despite ever-increasing levels of traffic congestion, the timetable is revised. However, basic frequencies will continue unchanged, with buses running up to every 7 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytimes.

Services 15 and 15A: So we can continue to offer the most reliable level of service, we’re making some changes to these routes. Although the main Monday to Saturday daytime frequency remains unchanged (with buses running up to every 30 minutes) trips during the morning peak will run up to 10 minutes earlier, and afternoon buses will run up to 10 minutes later. To further assist reliability, Services 15/15A will once again operate direct via Ponteland Road. This will mean buses will no longer serve New Mills.

Service 18: To further assist reliability, afternoon peak time buses will run up to 10 minutes later. The main Monday to Saturday daytime frequency remains unchanged, with buses running up to every 30 minutes.

Services 39 and 40: Mid-evening journeys on these services are slightly retimed, with most trips operating up to 4 minutes earlier towards Chapel House and Dumpling Hall, and up to 4 minutes later towards Walker and Wallsend. The main daytime timetable each day continues unchanged, with buses running up to every 5 minutes.

Service 68: Afternoon journeys are revised to operate up to 5 minutes later. There are no changes to morning trips.
