It's more likely (and the plan is) to build a bus station towards Pilgrim Street/Newbridge Street to keep Southbound (basically GNE) out of the City X=Centre and reduce congestion
Of course until Pilgrim Street is redeveloped (a long long long time away) nothing will happen as GNE aren't going to want passengers dumped in a dead part of the city as opposed to the horrifically designed Eldon Square
And of course there is the departure charges which Nexus currently charge every time a bus leaves a bus station - They need to be reasonable for a new station or bus companies will still operate around the City Centre.
Do they have departure charges for all bus stations, including smaller ones like Jarrow and Hetton-le-Hole?
Wait, NEXUS charge the bus companies to use the bus station?, The North East has some of the worst designed bus stations going...
Park Lane, Eldon Square, Haymarket is the worst.
