X21 temp change

Change of terminus: Gateshead Interchange (until further notice)

Due to roadworks causing significant delays, Service X21 will terminate at Gateshead Interchange until further notice and will not continue to Newcastle.

If you’re waiting at Eldon Square for the X21, please travel to Gateshead Interchange on Service 21 and connect with the X21 there.

We’re sorry for the disruption and appreciate your patience while these works are ongoing.

Good customer service that mind, just dump someone off short when the bus is already 20 minutes late anyway. How on earth can you connect to something running on a timetable all over the place.

If it was every 10 minutes, then fair play, but it isn't.

Whatever happened to the days of adding an extra bus to the PVR temporarily and regulating services...

Indeed, particualrly useless on a matchday when buses arrive pretty much full into Gateshead (at least those Eldon Sq bound) and would probably be able to take 10 or so passengers.

The change to X21 is still showing on the app but has been removed from the website and looking at bustimes the X21 is crossing the river

Thats quite disgusting tbh, the roadworks situation isnt new (even before the Tyne Bridge works) so to now use that as an excuse, is pretty thin as an excuse

That will be a nightmare, then. Will it mean that passengers travelling between , say,Spenny and Newcastle won’t be able to do it on two singles?

followed an x21 across bridge yesterday

The worst of the issues didn't appear to be due to the Tyne Bridge, buses appeared to be losing 30-40 minutes at Croxdale on the A167.
