A bus operator has launched its most comprehensive service and timetable guide for people in Chester-le-Street and Birtley.

Go North-East has distributed the guide to its travel centre in Front Street, Chester-le-Street, and at local libraries, the railway station and direct to travel club members.

The guide features the most up-to-date timetable and service information, as well as a map detailing the bus network operating in and around the town.

Information on fares and tickets, and a guide to town centre bus stops in the area have also been included. Anyone who would like a copy of the guide is asked to contact Go North-East customer services on 0845 60 60 260.
