Of course a proper flyover would be the best solution, but I have a better chance of winning the lottery.

The map below probably explains it better for those who don't know the route but all the red areas can easily add 10 minutes on each then you lose another 5 on the orange areas.
It's why it's common for the buses to be 30 minutes late with massive gaps heading into Newcastle as everything is just stuck which is a problem when it's one of the main buses from Quorum. Mind the traffic hasn't been as bad since Christmas, seems like people are rat running elsewhere.
Moor Farm is the problem though as it's all caused by people rat running cutting the corner off, fix that and most the problems there should be gone but there's no chance of that happening any time soon.
Looking at that map, a bus gate into the estate in the same section as Miller and Carter would have helped massively too with the advantage of giving the residents a closer bus stop too.
In terms of South Gosforth, is running it via Gosforth High Street and down like the 54/354 an option?
