Sorry forgot to add you'd have to make a road improvement there (or turn it into a bus gate if being cheap) but it's probably a worthwhile improvement especially considering the top left quadrant near it is completely unserved and still is after these changes. This is what the point of the BSIP was meant to be after all and the Great Park is likely somewhere people might actually want to go from Dinnington unlike Hazlerigg.
Obviously the road in Cramlington isn't open yet in the Beacon Hill area either but it'd be nice to have services ready to serve the estate there. I do believe there's going to be a second bus gate over there going into the back of Beacon Hill itself so it can do two different routes through there (reason I put the 2 buses through there). Arguably better than putting the X9 through one of them, it being too infrequent, and the other road being unserved which will no doubt be reality.
