Word on the street is that Tees Valley Stagecarriage are to withdraw the 87 from February, leaving only one school journey to Northfield School in each direction, each day.

THis will leave Hartburn, Elton, Longnewton etc with no service.

Sounds like it is happening, change registered on VOSA to take place on the 9th February. Most of Hartburn will lose its service (Compass Royston's 588/589 serve part of the village) while Elton and Longnewton complete lose theirs. Likelihood is that the Council will increase the Deminimis funding currently given for the Elton/Longnewton part of the 87A to replace the Stockton-Longnewton service.

Brief description of the changes are on the connect tees valley website under forthcoming timetable changes.

Those (now updated to reflex the collapse of Tees Valley Coach Travel today) regard the start of Stagecarriage's operation of the 87/87A/87B. No mention yet of the cancellation of the 87/87A from Feburary.
