Who is gonna do the maths to see the winners and losers?


My own immediate thoughts:

* It seems strange that Birtley isn't included in the Gateshead zone, but is included in Chester le Street Zone. Apart from it being in Gateshead, it's also in Nexus land.


* It needs to be made clear that the X9/10 plus tickets are (or maybe they're not), available to purchase on other services.





From my POV, the all zones ticket at £7 is better than the current all zones but a little more expensive than the 2 zone I currently buy to keep my options open when I travel from Durham to the metrocentre.

As mentioned always some winners and losers but this one has always seemed wrong to me.
I suspect that short hop single or return journeys will still be less than a day ticket.
