Hey all, hopefully this is ok to post here.

I spent sometime in Gateshead/ Newcastle this weekend for the first time in a while. I was doing some photography around the High Level Bridge area, and noticed X66s were once again running along the seemingly unnamed road by the side of the Tyne near Dunston/ Teams. I'm sure this had been closed for ages and buses had been routed via Askew Road (I know buses can go either way).

Two questions:

B: When did it reopen/ why was it closed for a long while?

I was reading the manifesto of Kim McGuiness and one the things buried in there is a review of bus stops in the region to make them accessible to disabled people - A very noble aim.

Are we inadvertently going to see the closure of some bus stops - which will actually reduce mobility?

This has been confirmed as cancelled this year due to the Howlands Park & Ride site now open on Sundays for Park & Ride services to and from Durham City Centre.

North East Bus Preservation Trust confirmed it on their facebook page tonight.

Of the playoffs due to not having a 10 year lease on Gateshead Stadium.

I try to stick up for council but now  if i find out they've cocked up and add to the the extortionate monthly council tax... well maybe its time for a change!
