New Housing Estates and Other Developments
New Housing Estates and Other Developments
I was reading the Skyscraper City forum this morning and noticed that a planning application to build 185 new homes in High Spen had recently been approved by Gateshead Council.

The map shows that the houses are to be built near Collingdon Road - just north of the Bute Arms and near to High Spen Bus Stand.
185 homes means probably 500 or more residents are going to be moving to the area. Collingdon Road is currently served by the 10A and R6 - the X47 disappears up the bank after the Bute Arms.
The purpose of this thread, I guess, is to discuss new building developments and their proximity to public transport links.
Is the current level of service enough or will High Spen merit a X47A in the near future?
