We have received many complaints over many months about the poor condition and general atmosphere at the station so the news that it has been bought by Durham County Council will be well received by many travelers in and around East Durham.
We have published below a press release issued by the council which outlines plans for preliminary improvements to the station:
Peterlee bus station bought by council
Residents in East Durham can look forward to better public
transport after Durham County Council completed the purchase of Peterlee bus
station.
The deal means that the council now owns all of the bus
stations in County Durham allowing for greater coordination countywide as well
as more control in managing and allocating bus services at the station. Passengers
can also now look forward to better facilities and improved maintenance of the
site.
