- X30/X31 via Ravensworth Road then non stop via Gas Works and Centrelink then Swing Bridge. Stanley bound via Redheugh Bridge, Askew Road West and Gas Works - would only add 5 mins at most and interworking wouldn't be an issue, any height decker could be used.
- 6 via Clockmill Road and Pitz Soccer as Tyne Valley Ten already covers the Teams.
- Peak time 10/10A/10B normal route to Askew Road West then back down via Tyne Road and Rose Street onto Centrelink.
Nah, it's surely a case of getting the begging bowl out and getting the taxpayer to fund some sort of improvement.
Whether it be lowering the road height or increasing the height of the bridge.
