Petition set up to save North Tyneside bus routes at risk due to falling passenger numbers

A number of Arriva bus routes in North Tyneside are at risk of being cut following a downturn in passenger numbers.

In response to the planned cuts, North Tyneside councillors are urging the public to show their support to keep the at-risk routes.

Bus operator Arriva has said it intends to withdraw a number of bus services which could likely affect many passengers in North Tyneside.
