Fighting for Reliable Bus Services in Redcar & Cleveland

Since the closure of Arriva’s Redcar depot, residents have faced cancelled, delayed and missing services, affecting journeys to work, hospital appointments, schools and colleges.

We have already met with Arriva to discuss the closure and its impact on local services. The assurances we were given do not match residents’ experiences.

I have written jointly with Cllr Alec Brown 4 Kirkleatham, Cllr Carl Quartermain and Luke Myer MP - Middlesbrough South & East Cleveland to the Traffic Commissioner, calling for urgent action and accountability from Arriva.

Our communities deserve a bus service they can rely on.

I need to hear from residents about any problems you have experienced with Arriva buses. Please comment below with the service number, location and what happened, so we can build a clear picture of the issues.

I will keep residents updated throughout this process.
