NHS Northumbria are proposing to operate services between the Hospital and Cramlington Shops, and another to Northumberland Park.
I'd imagine these will be operated by Solos.

Thankfully normal route should operate from Monday.

It does cause a delay, but I wouldn't say it's a massive delay?I was on the 1300 from Gateshead this afternoon and we arrived Durham on time at 1345, coming back on the 1621 we left about 5 late but we were about 20 late arriving into Gateshead,
