Not unless the plan is to build round Iceland and keep Iceland slap bang in the middle and the bus station built behind it.

From photo's that's been took of North Shields showing the general area of where rhe bus station will be

Last photo is mine and the rest are other people's

Out of the 5 photos of buses shown next to the big building next to the metro station is where the bus station is meant to be

If I'm right the bus station is where the yellow is and always has been. What's changed is now instead of them knocking down the light blue area they're now knocking down the green area instead as it's cheaper since the Metro doesn't run underneath. Don't think it's ever been planned to knock down Costa / Iceland / the old Burger King or McDonalds unit. The back half of the Co-op has been abandoned for years, it used to be one big shop at one point but then they only kept the front half.
