It makes sense really, as a lot of people see how packed the Metros are and try and find an alternative means of transport. This was even more of a problem today due to the issues with the Metro.
The traffic in South Shields often means that buses get stuck at that end too, and there's very little scope to get things moving from the other end.
It went tits up for buses and Metro's.
