I was on the 341 a couple weeks ago, it was a Friday lunchtime and it was carrying fresh air, literally just me, 1 other passenger, and obviously the driver which poses a question
Why not turn the 340/341 back into circular routes like they used to, have both do Wiltshire Drive, then swap the 340/341 with the 342 along West Street, High Street West (340), and Elton Street West (341) , then send the 342 along Station Road to cover the loss of the 340, it would give back a service to that area to/from Wallsend and Tynemouth Road since the loss of the since the loss of the 11 (and the 42/42A), im still also convinced something could be done with the 335
