Team Valley buses
Hi, can anybody help?
Would I get the 94 there from Gateshead College and then get the 93 back from Team Valley to Gateshead Interchange?

94 there, 93 back would be the quickest.
Depending on the time of day, you could have the 91 as an option too.

(30 Oct 2020, 9:23 pm)OrangeArrow49 Thank you, Andreos1.Dont forget though you would have to go into Newcastle to get the 91 not Gateshead
Yes, that's what I thought - 94 there and 93 back, as the opposite way is the long way round! Forgot about the 91, so maybe the 91 there and 93 back.

(31 Oct 2020, 12:40 am)OrangeArrow49 From Newcastle to Kingsway South, then from Kingsway South to Gateshead Interchange, back to Newcastle! So the 91 from Newcastle and the 93 from Team Valley should be the best, I think.

Thank you for your help everyone.
Would the 1A and 97 on Lobley Hill Road be an option for getting back into Newcastle too?

Thank you for the replies and help. I'm not sure if Lobley Hill Road is too much of a walk, and I knew, but forgot about the expresses along there! Just looking for alternatives back to Newcastle if the 93 doesn't show up, and the 93 only goes to Gateshead Interchange whereas the Lobley Hill Road services go into Newcastle, the expresses to Eldon Square where I need to be to get my bus home! Struggling to work out which service is best!

I've often found waiting at the stop behind Mothercare a good option. If you're coming from one of the college sites, it's only a few mins walk. Certainly quicker and easier than shanks pony up to Kingsway North/Maingate.
It's the only stop on the Valley that both the 93 and 94 share and providing you're not fussy or there are delays in one direction, it gives a bit of flexibility.
Should the 93 not rock up, then a 94 to Chowdene, Low Fell, Beacon Lough/QE, Felling or even Heworth (and connecting to one of the many buses to Newcastle from each of those locations) may be an idea.
As an example the 94 will drop you off at the lights just before the QE and from the very same stop, you have the X1, 56, 57 and 28 which will take you over the river.
When I've worked down there, I've always went to the Valley with the idea that I'd have no idea which way I'd get home. The open mindset, that stop behind Mothercare and knowing where connecting services operated from helped me many a time.

(02 Nov 2020, 1:24 pm)OrangeArrow49 It's for work not college, but thanks for the help. I need to figure out what's the quickest way home. The 94 takes ages, the 93 is quick to Gateshead Interchange, but I'm not sure how reliable the 93/94 are. Lobley Hill Road seems quite a hike up Kingsway, but has more buses and they go to Newcastle rather than just Gateshead. Probably quickest to get the 93 and change at the Interchange, but if the 93 doesn't show up for whatever reason I'll be stuck.
Team Valley doesn't have many bus services! The 91 seems like the best option to get there, but for getting back I'm relying on a 93 turning up or going to Lobley Hill Road for anything from there. For the Metrocentre, would the Interchange and then a bus there or Lobley Hill Road be the quickest?

(02 Nov 2020, 1:53 pm)Andreos1 Sorry, thought you mentioned the college earlier on.
How about the 93 to Bensham Bank and the 53 from there, straight over the Redheugh Bridge to Newcastle?
Done that a couple of times too. Saves going in to Gateshead.
Anything that goes from Kingsway North/Maingate to Newcastle via Gateshead is going to take just as long as the 93. They'll follow each other up the bank. All you're doing is changing buses earlier on.
I've been stuck for a 93 many a time, hence the suggestion about the 94 and changing part way round its loop.
As for the Metrocentre, owt from Kingsway North/Maingate to the Metro will take you on a grand tour before getting anywhere near the Metrocentre.

(02 Nov 2020, 2:04 pm)OrangeArrow49 Apologies, I did, but I just meant the Baltic Campus bus stop for the 93/94 but I think I'll get the 91 from Newcastle instead.Depending on the times you wanted to get to the Merocentre you also have a couple of works services from Team Valley. Off the top of my head there are the 90 and 941 from Valley to Metrocentre, maybe others also.
So the 93 isn't reliable then? If getting the 93 from Kingsway North it's quick enough to Gateshead Interchange then I can get something into Newcastle from there. It's 3 buses home! Just two buses there as I can get the 91 from Newcastle to Team Valley, and from Lobley Hill Road it would be two buses home as they go into Newcastle. If the 93 doesn't show, get the 94 and change buses along the route? Forget Lobley Hill Road as it's quite a hike, or go for that if the 93 doesn't arrive?
Metrocentre would probably be a 93 to Gateshead Interchange then X66 to Metrocentre I guess.

I'm not sure where your coming from but something in the back of my head says your from the West End somewhere, couldn't you get the 941 direct from there?
