I guess that South Beach to Metro customers can use the 308 or 309 to Whitley Bay, then walk to the Metro station.
Quite a long walk to the 309 for some in South Beach, especially those who live near South Newsham playing fields. I know there was moaning from pensioners who live near Amersham Drive as they can't get to Cramlington anymore either without walking.
They really need to work on the X7/X8/52 imo but I'm not sure what but there's no need for the X8, 52 and 53 doing very similar routes between Killingworth / Burradon and Cramlington give or take now that they've removed Cowpen etc going on a magical mystery tour around everywhere.
