This part has me interested

terminating at a temporary bus station at the Civic Centre

During pride in 2019 I was on a 309 and that got turned around at the roundabout next to the sandyford square car park (which I presume is where you're on about) and stopped at a temporary bus stop straight after.

Reading the diversion again does not mention a blunder for the 27 or X10 after/before Heworth

How's the X10 meant to get to Dalton Park and back and how's the 27 meant to leave and access Heworth towards South Shields and back as isn't the road crossing Heworth closed for the run

Nexus website has provided the 27 change

27 will be split in two. 27 will finish at Heworth and passengers will be escorted through the Subway tunnel and to another bus on the other side of the road. This is for travelling to and from Heworth

Nexus provided X10 diversion towards Newcastle

Will divert via A1231, Northumberland Way, Lingey Lane, Meresyde, Colegate, High Heworth Lane and Sunderland Road to Heworth then run normal route to Gateshead.

Then from Gateshead it will run over the Redheugh Bridge, St James Boulevard, Westmorland Road, Clayton Street West, Clayton Street, Newgate Street, Percy Street, Prudhoe Place to Eldon Square (passing through non stop) Percy Street and terminate at Newgate Street.

This service will be ran by Double Decker instead of Coaches (route will run the same route to Middlesbrough as mentioned above)

Nexus confirmed that Civic Centre Car Park will be turned into a bus station and all Coast Road services included 33A/Q3 (To Newcastle) and 1

All buses that serve Eldon Square will finish there and will run via Redheugh Bridge and Clayton Street

All services that finish at Market Street will run via Redheugh Bridge and Clayton Street finish at Newgate Street (Wilkinson's)

X11 will start at Newgate Street (same stop as X10) and run to Gateshead following X10 route over high level Bridge
