Yeah, would've literally gave the buses a stop in the interchange aswell without actually serving it so most people could get a bus there.

Agreed though with the pedestrian connections, mind it was all grotty typical 1960's/1970's planning. Some horrid horrid schemes got through that time and sadly Sunderland has a lot of it. Not as bad as Gateshead and the East side of Newcastle mind which still really blights both to this day.
