Couple of mins in an uber.
Nothing under 30mins on public transport. Some options took the best part of an hour.
Surely it's not beyond the wit of man or beast to realise that places like Cobalt, Quorum etc have decent traffic flows. Particularly during peak. Yet are seemingly ignored. Or, have buses going to and from the same places.
Stupid isn't it? It's the same with Silverlink unless you want to walk for 10 minutes under grim underpasses which anyone with kids isn't doing.
I know some will say, 'people won't use it', but everyone said that about Teesside Park aswell...
It's arguably a better place to be than North Shields or Wallsend, who the hell wants to be there? Ironically the bus which serves Silverlink (19) now also avoids every house it can between North Shields and it aswell now.
