The 1 only have 5 mins either end, same with the 97
Layovers aren't the answer though, if I lived in Bensham and need to go to Metrocentre, it being 10 minutes late isn't alright because it has a 15 minute layover at the end or vice versa from Cullercoats to Whitley Bay.
Bolting bus routes together for the sake for bolting bus routes that have no connections in being together and can't easily be regulated as they're too infrequent is just stupid imo.
