The metro is good but passenger numbers are not increasing I believe the all time high for usage was more than 20 years ago. I must admit that this surprised me.
At best, passenger growth is stagnant on the metro.
Nexus spent £5 million rebuilding Gateshead stadium station this year. How could they justify this? It has minimal passengers and the previous station met all health amd safety requirements.
Regarding the use of the Leamside line for the metro. This has been planned since 2006. Much money has been spent on research into the metro extension but nothing done. And now more money is being spent on another piece of research.
Well I'm sure the people at nexus and their pals will make plenty of money from yet another piece of research.
i had a good chat to a Nexus researcher the other week.i told him that Nexus were a PTE by another name. This he denied!!!!
We had a good chat and it was obvious how little he knew about the transport industry, deregulation etc.
The metro is good but why aren't passenger numbers increasing?
