There's no need for half the buses going across the Tyne and they're the major cause of pollution in Newcastle (not cars).

It doesn't help that everything is timetabled at the same time then there's nothing for a bit especially in the evening in places. Not sure if it's like that down there but wouldn't surprise me.

I know at Haymarket the 43, 54, X9, X10, X21/X22 are all identical times (15/45) which follow each other along Gosforth High Street causing bother at the stops. Then there's barely nothing for the next 15 minutes until it starts again at 00/30. It's why it's always gridlock at the same times as everything leaves together.

 thats a bit like the 28, 56 , 57 and x1 that all seem to leave wreckenton just before the hour mark when customers normally finish on the hour.
