The suitability of both a standard diesel and a hybrid Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 will be tested on the route to see which is most appropriate. If it is deemed that hybrid deckers are suitable for the route, funding will be sought after from the Green Bus Fund. It is also likely that another batch of vehicles will be applied for though the Green Bus Fund. The TEN Mercedes Citaros will then cascade onto The Crusader in coincide with the South Tyne Partnership.

Do all of the vehicles need to be deckers or is it just one of the routes which is busiest. I have traveled on the 10 to and from Hexham during peak times quite a number of times and there only seems to be 1 or 2 people standing, and its only normally for a short period.

Also do you work for GNE? This seems to be a very specific post!
