Totally agree that it will be more vulnerable to getting stuck in traffic (I've had to endure a 93 taking 15 minutes to get to the A184/Tyne Bridge junction on many occasions), but I'd imagine that it'd be too confusing to customers to have both the Q1 (Newcastle-bound) and Q1 (Heworth/Wrekenton-bound) serving Jackson Street and Gateshead High Street.
