The Shields Ferry
The Shields Ferry
The Shields Ferry has been withdrawn from service due to a technical problem. This is affecting both ferries, Pride of the Tyne and Spirit of the Tyne.
A half hourly replacement bus service is in operation running non-stop between the Ferry Landings, South Shields and North Shields, via the Tyne Tunnel until further notice.
Two buses are in operation on the hour and on the half hour from each Ferry Landing.
Buses depart from South Shields Ferry Landing on River Drive (B1344) - just outside the BT Building.
Buses depart from North Shields Ferry Landing at the bus turning circle, just outside the landing area.
We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.
