It just seems like the money could go be spent on better especially since theres talks of the franchise 

Like this has been an extreme hot topic but im unsure if it'll work or even go ahead. Prices rise every single day and this project will probably become to expensive and be Curtailed or cancelled all together 

Kim seems to be doing to much at once and doesn't seem to be getting the best press with her constantly talking about the buses now. Yet nothing seems to be going ahead. Her mayor fares killed the coast road agreement and says she "cut metro fares cause people were asked" with the slime line then saying "with a pop pay as you go"

Yeah i cant see this happening even if it does. We will see cuts left right & center and possibly even it Curtailed

tbf the links to Washington are pretty badly needed and everything between Pelaw and Washington South imo makes sense and I don't think anyone can really complain about it.

It turns a grey area though whether it should head to Sunderland or continue heading South to Penshaw / Shiney Row / Fencehouses though which seems like it would be much cheaper and give more people who have poor transport links to the main city especially considering there hasn't been a railway link between the Victoria Viaduct and South Hylton for over 50 year. 

Build that right and Penshaw could be a very powerful interchange to pretty much everywhere round there since everything hits it give or take ie. 2/4/37/78/79/X1. Sadly the current plans just miss it completely.

The North East parocial issues will kick in there though.
