A BUS operator is revising several of its services in an attempt to improve overall quality and reliability.

Changes to Go North East services in Sunderland and east Durham will take effect from Saturday.

Some journeys will be slightly re-routed or re-timed, and new journeys providing better links will be added. Some services will be replaced with alternative links.

The services affected are numbers 37, 37A, 45, 143, 145, 146, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, X45, X95, 127, 164, 185, 188, 231, and X85.

Timetable information is available at all Go North East travel centres, local libraries, and other distribution points.
