The likes of the 100 will be redundant.

But a lot of people still use it as an interchange, I highly doubt Metrocentre is going to close permanently, so if it were to close temporarily it would add extra time on to a lot of journeys, having to travel to either Gateshead or Eldon Square (if that even stays open)
