⚠️⚠️ Services 472 / 473 / Hoppa ⚠️⚠️

The road conditions are bad this morning, lots of black ice and other drivers struggling. Our services are running but can only go as fast as the conditions allow, so please be patient and allow our drivers extra time today, this will likely cause a knock on effect for the days timetables 😊 I’m sure they’d appreciate a nice cuppa if you see them 😂 xx

Something a little bit different tonight, our Shaun sent us these two photos that he’s taken, one tonight, and the other was 32 years ago, in the same place, transporting some of the same generations of families ! 😍 The first was when he worked for Northumbria Buses and the second now working for us! 😊
