Services aren't heading into Eldon Square from Central Ststion at the minute, hasn't been any complaints at the moment tbh either.
Any or none that you're aware of?
Either way, it is the summer and the majority of punters will be essential workers (I was having a conversation with a mate who lives in western Gateshead about his mooch up to the work now versus walking up from Eldon Square and straight up St Thomas St).
As it stands, it's not a cold, windy December with people carting about a boat load of Christmas shopping about.
Time will tell whether the move to 'on street' stops will work. It might be worth seeing what the punters on Market St or Grainger St think about a shelter vs a covered bus station.
