I do think having it go via John Dobson Street/Pilgrim Street or having it Serve Eldon Square could be a Major Benefit for Passengers. I honestly don't think 2 Buses would have a Serious Effect to those that already serve the MetroCentre from Eldon Square.
A lot more than going via Newcastle. North Shields to Wallsend would get a quicker bus, there would be competition with the 22 at Fossway, new links to Quayside etc.
There is no point in having that going via Quayside from Newcastle. Also, there is already plenty of buses along the Coast Road, and the 100 serves Pilgrim Street, so not much of a ''Major benifit''. Also, you've got the 51/306/307/308/309/310 that serve Haymarket, and the 58 which service John Dobson Street and New Bridge Street.
