I'd imagine GNE could do the following for the 309 & 310 if it still allowed social distancing in terms of capacity:
- 309 reduced to hourly getting 57 mins x Blyth and 55 mins x Newcastle. Departs Blyth at xx:43 arr Newcastle xx:40. Departs Newcastle xx:45 arr Blyth xx:40
- 310 reduced to hourly and serving Hadrian Park. Departs N/Shields xx:25 arr Newcastle xx:10. Departs Newcastle xx:15 arr N/Shields xx:58
- 311 withdrawn
