Stood on Birtley Front Street, like a drowned rat earlier this morning waiting for a bus in either direction (I wasn't fussy, I just wanted to get out of the rain).
The two covered bus stands on the Front Street have been closed/replaced with a temporary one whilst they rebuild everything.
So passengers have to walk to the doctors/baths or to the cenotaph/fire station.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Temporary stops should be outside signtech/Birtley snooker hall heading towards Chester Le Street, and just opposite towards Newcastle? They definitely have been when I've used them lately.
