Newcastle City Council - Better Bus routes

(16 Oct 2025, 7:14 pm)Storx wrote Must admit I was thinking about that white elephant car park. Personally I wish we'd restore the old Quaylink services and advertise them again, they're a missing link right now and 53/54/Q3 doesn't work in promoting the Quayside links; there's already been enough discussions about the poor loadings to the Northern end on the Q3, in particular.

You could easily renumber the 53/54 to the Q1/Q2 and then curtail back the Q3 back, at both ends. There's ample parking down in Spillers Wharf which is currently abandoned which could easily be served by the Q3, if you sent it back along the front via the Swing Bridge - admit you'd lose the beach, but it's really not the end of the world. Easily 3k spaces there which are out of the centre for those who live miles away and don't really have a choice. 

Both those car parks are served on them anyway and could be the key for them having passengers this time and would create links to the HMRC. 

It also could be key to regeneration for both those areas.



Glad to see they're looking down there, always thought it would be a good site for rail and buses really.

I would re- number Q1 Q2 to PR1 PR2 

think how it has developed in Durham as a brand (taxpayer funded btw)
