RE: Tyne and Wear Metro
If you're talking about a less frequent service to South Hylton, there has to be consideration about turning back at Sunderland/Park Lane. I personally think that cutting frequency in any circumstance is a bad thing, but the frequency is every 12 minues (5 TPH) and the times I have been on that section and judging by the 200,000 - 300,000 pre covid yearly ridership, the service seams a bit much for a line that sees low ridership compared to the South Shields branch or the coast loop. The line could do with 24 minute (2.5 TPH) service (20 minutes (3 TPH) when new trains get in).
