More on the April Service Changes

Yesterday we reported numerous service changes planned for 20th April. There have been some more reported on the VOSA website today, by Stagecoach in both Grimsby and Hull.

PB0000163/43 - GRIMSBY CLEETHORPES TRANSPORT CO LTD T/A STAGECOACH GRIMSBY CLEETHORPES, PO BOX 15, DEACON ROAD, LINCOLN, LN2 4JB
Registration Accepted
Starting Point: Humberside Airport
Finish Point: Cleethorpes
Via:
Service Number: HF
Service Type: Normal Stopping
Effective Date: 20-APR-2009
Other Details: Monday to Saturday hourly
PB0001987/138 - CLEVELAND TRANSIT LTD T/A STAGECOACH NORTHEAST, ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, WHEATSHEAF, SUNDERLAND, SR5 1AQ
Variation Accepted: Operating between Hull Interchange and Wawne given service number 20 effective from 20-Apr-2009. To amend Timetable.
PB0001987/235 - CLEVELAND TRANSIT LTD T/A STAGECOACH NORTHEAST, ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, WHEATSHEAF, SUNDERLAND, SR5 1AQ
Variation Accepted: Operating between Hull Interchange and Cottingham Castle Hill given service number 63 effective from 20-Apr-2009. To amend Timetable.

While no official details have been released yet it looks like the X1 will be renumbered HF (Humber Flyer) and no longer extend beyond Cleethorpes to New Waltham. It will also be operated on two separate registrations, for what I presume are technical reasons.

The Cleethorpes to New Waltham section shall be replaced by new service 12B (Bradley Park-Grimsby-Cleethorpes-New Waltham). Service 12 operated between New Waltham and Cleethorpes (and beyond to Grimsby and Laceby) before the service was merged into the X1.

The 12B shall start at Bradley Park, currently served by service 5, which today an application has been put in to cancel. However will the Gilbey Road areas of Grimsby, and Europarc Industrial Estate, gain a replacement service? (These are also served by service 5)
