There’s absolutely no way you’d want to subject tourists to Gateshead Interchange. Since the flyover closure the traffic is fairly bad around there. Toon Tour is fine as it, extending north towards the Town Moor via the universities and back via great north road would make sense.
Not sure there is demand to return the Quaylink to its old guise
