It would massively keep delays down.
Unless your planning to spend millions to do it then it's impossible as it is including a new bridge over the Tyne. Causing congestion intentionally to prioritise buses is not the right move as it just causes delays to buses elsewhere when cars rat run and increases pollution so is counter productive.
Apart from the Tyne Bridge itself there's already a bus lane give or take from Gateshead to Newcastle.
