The 27X service is being provided through the South Tyneside Better Bus Partnership with Go North East at the request of a local councillor and in response to the results of a recent resident survey.
From 3 June it will run hourly during the day linking Victoria Road West, Victoria Road East, Black Road, and Argyle Street with Hebburn Town Centre, and limited stops to Heworth Metro, Gateshead town centre and Newcastle City centre.
Local people are being urged to make the most of the 27X during the six-month trial period as it will only continue after that if passenger numbers are high enough to justify the cost of the service.
