I wouldn't be surprised one bit if GoNorthEast found out the same day that we found out about the closures and they didn't actually and still don't have a plan yet. It wouldn't be the first time.

Note that Arriva, Nexus and Stagecoach haven't mentioned anything yet about it either.

Stagecoach have they posted it yesterday obviously saying it doesn't impact the X24/X24A/X34 but it will.more than likely make there services late due to traffic. They also said this

Bus operators, Nexus and Gateshead Council have been in discussions about mitigation measures throughout this closure (and the upcoming Park Lane closure later in the Summer), including encouraging private traffic to avoid the area and use other Tyne Crossings. Nevertheless, we are expecting severe delays to Service X24, X24A and X34, particularly during peak times. Our control room teams will do their best to minimise disruption, however we urge customers to leave more time for their journey, especially if they are heading into Gateshead and Newcastle in the morning rush hour.
