They used to, but were moved to Stand D temporarily to allow better social distancing.
Now that Stand D will be occupied by the Metro Replacement bus service, the 1A/1B need to move back to their original stands.

Thanks, think nexus need to update their files.
I was in Gateshead Interchange the first time for years just before Christmas. Very poor for infrequent passengers. I came off a 58 and it took me ages to find where to catch an X10. No clear internal navigation or service information.

Yeah, even as someone who uses Gateshead Interchange frequently, I still have no bloody idea where anything is.
It doesn't help that they've replaced the timetable boards with government propaganda!

Yes, for all the live departure boards and apps are useful , a solid timetable wall like Middlesbrough has always had should be in every good bus station.

I agree entirely!
Our local bus station has just been replaced by a brand new build version, not bad at all EXCEPT that ALL timetable information is in the form of electronic departure boards that list departures for the next hour only. To work out what later buses may serve your route, you have to queue at the information office. If the electronic system fails ..... you're on your own! I did ask at the info office once (yes, I queued up to ask this) WHY there were no printed timetables displayed, and was told that the council thought it would make the place look untidy .....

At least Gateshead still has the large printed timetables at the stands.
And, to give NEXUS credit where it's due, their printed timetables are fantastic, so much better than the mess that is Durham Council's!
They give you estimated journey times to key destinations along the route, and the times are actually laid out in a way that's easy to read. ie. sorted by the hour not just chucked in a box!

Yes, on my travels I've often felt that the timetables around Newcastle were the most useful and user-friendly of all that I've seen.
Our local council has the habit of picking a stop, collating times for it and then using those times for every stop between there and the next collation point - not really much use when the chosen points can be fifteen minutes apart! They also seem to only list some of the routes, giving an incomplete picture of services.

Don't know but M71 by GCT has apparently been cancelled for date of 28th March so more than likely that day for service changes
Tried VOSA but it just confuses me
