Due to the on-going works on the A19/A1058 Coast Road Junction Scheme, Stagecoach Service 22 buses are operating via their established diversion from 8pm each evening.  This will apply until Saturday 26th May.
Stagecoach service 22 will divert away from the Silverlink Roundabout and travel up Churchill Street via the Jolly Bowman, along Middle Engine Lane and into the north side of Silverlink. All buses will turn at Osprey Drive roundabout and observe the stops outside the Volkswagen and Citroen dealerships before returning to the northern end of Silverlink and on towards Cobalt Park, re-joining the normal route.
Although buses will be unable to use their normal stops on the slip roads from Silverlink onto the Coast Road and Willington Square, they will observe all stops along the line of their diversionary route starting from 8pm each night.

On Saturday, 19 May and Sunday 20 May the southbound bus lane on North Bridge Street, Sunderland, will be closed for realignment between Wheatsheaf and Dundas Street, with stops at Wheatsheaf out of use as a result.  Services will divert via Roker Avenue, Church Street North and Dame Dorothy Street. 
Passengers travelling on Stagecoach services 3, 4, 12, 13 or 16 and Go North East services 9, 20/20A, 35, 36, 56 or X20 should use the stop outside the Salvation Army on Roker Avenue or Dame Dorothy Street, near Bonner’s Field.  Passengers travelling on Stagecoach services 23, 18, E1, E2 or E6 should use the stop on Dame Dorothy Street.  Northbound journeys are unaffected.
