@KiMcGuinness This is a major complaint about the bus service in the Derwent valley. Twice this week an X45 has failed to run because of mechanical failure. As a professional engineer I know that breakdowns are almost always the result of bad maintenance. This is a disgrace.
@gonortheast
I knew from the app that the 1800 was cancelled. There was a long queue and no up to date information. In the end I took a taxi (£33) and on the way home saw another broken down x45! What is going on? Please don't blame cold weather. This is bad maintenance!
@gonortheast
I am reporting major disruption to my travel yesterday on X45 between Ebchester and Newcastle. I caught the 1pm from Ebchester but it broke down in Rowlands gill. I was transferred to a 47. Coming home I planned to catch 17 30 from Eldon Sq. It did not arrive.
@garthjh Hello, I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused on your journey. Unfortunately services at this time are subject to delays due to peak time travel. I do apologise.
@gonortheast the X45 has just left Consett bus station 6 mins late. This seems to happen regularly. Why?? To those of us with onwards connections this is important. This is one of many reasons why people don't use buses. Bad for the environment! Please tell management!
