I can't find the first post about this but there's an update:
Closure of Timber Beach Road from 1 February
Date: 01 Feb 2016
Without prior notice, this closure has been brought forward to 1 February 2016.
Timber Beach Road will be closed between the A1231 Wessington Way/Castletown Way roundabout and the Timber Beach Road/Hylton Park Road roundabout, due to civil engineering works in connection with construction of the Wear Bridge.
Services 35, 35A & 36 will be routed via North Hylton Road, Castletown Way, A1231 Wessington Way and Hylton Riverside Retail Park Colima Avenue and Castletown Dene in both directions.
The routes in Hylton Riverside Retail Park for services 8, 99, 99A, 135 and 136 will not be affected.
There will be no changes to the existing timetables.
