Not sure if the southbound direction route has changed, although you cannot get any more direct to Gateshead than the route they run now.Those rumours have been going for years. Written off as too expensive to implement in years gone by.
I can understand this, as the Monument does get very busy at times.
Rumours that Blackett St will be fully pedestrianised in the future too.
