Typical councillors who live in a different dimension when it comes to transport.
Personally I'd rather they used the space for something else like a cinema and bowling alley and used the market place for buses. You know things which bring people into a town... Good thing Tindale exists for that though...
As has been mentioned before, the North Shields transport hub is part of the wider North Shields masterplan. The relocating of the ferry landing also forms part of that masterplan: https://my.northtyneside.gov.uk/sites/de...012021.pdf
Bishop Auckland is much the same. The new bus station forms part of a wider masterplan (https://www.bishopaucklandregeneration.com/projects/), but as with most regeneration schemes, the doom-mongers are always out in force.
