Has any of that stuff that they say will happen in early 2022 actually happened though, it says construction would now be starting in March/April, but I can’t see anything

If only there was some sort of planning and survey that could have predicted this

Wistfully stuck in the 90s

It will still be a dumping ground for Arriva buses, no extra bus stands, should of built the bus station in the original plans on top of north road, instead of diverting the funds to the new council HQ and then decide when built not to move in and then rent it out/give it to the university

They're selling it, not giving it away. It should never have been built there in the first place. Accessibility is awful.

The refurbished Durham Bus Station is due to open this summer, as is North Shields Interchange.

If both are open by late September I may see them both with an Explorer (or GNE day ticket) as I shall be passing through the area to/from my weekend in Edinburgh.

I know a bit off topic but there's new tickets coming out soon which will be much cheaper than the Explorer which covered all of Co. Durham, Northumberland and Tyne and Wear for £6.80.

No doubt it'll be badly advertised for anyone outside the region.

Some details - https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/nor...e-26727413

Assuming the Explorer will still exist though for those crossing the Teesside boundary. Just thought I'd say.

Not just Teesside, explorers also valid into parts of North Yorkshire and of course across to Carlisle on the 685 - plus on the Metro and ferry

Thank you, as this is helpful news anyway.  It is cheaper than a Nexus Day ticket at £9.10.

I have now booked a night in September, specifically in South Shields.  I can check just beforehand whether either refurbished bus station is open or not.

I was due to pass through Newcastle on my way home from Edinburgh anyway.  I decided I prefer to stop off here even if neither is open than to miss out if they are open by then.

I would expect North Shields to be open by early September - Durham may be complete by then.
