I received an interesting letter from Northumbria NHS Trust today. We had asked them to ensure the new bus service they will provide between the new A&E Trauma Hospital and Cramlington is extended beyond Manor Walks to Cramlington Station. And the answer is it will – well almost. The bus will serve Station Road. Well, that is not exactly the station itself, still quite a considerable walk. It wouldn’t take much to extend it across the junction and into the station turning circle. Now the approach road has been yellow lined, there can be no operational objection to that. I will write back to the NHS and make the point again. Meanwhile, the bus will be numbered C1 and operated by Arriva. We await details of start date and times.
