I spent sometime in Gateshead/ Newcastle this weekend for the first time in a while. I was doing some photography around the High Level Bridge area, and noticed X66s were once again running along the seemingly unnamed road by the side of the Tyne near Dunston/ Teams. I'm sure this had been closed for ages and buses had been routed via Askew Road (I know buses can go either way).

Two questions:

A: Does this particular bus-only road actually have a name?
B: When did it reopen/ why was it closed for a long while?

Ta.

It's called the centre link

It should be used more from the Swing Bridge to the Metro would be so much quicker than the way they go currently
