public transport

Fancy being chauffeur driven every day? Fed up of congestion and road rage?

If your answer is yes, then you'll be glad to know that public transport offers you a convenient and relaxing option to get around Tyne & Wear.

You've probably heard that ‘Buses Are Getting Better’, with air-conditioning, CCTV and comfy seats. You may also know that we have an extensive award winning Metro system right here in Tyne & Wear. Not to mention a Ferry service taking you from North to South Shields, and the railway network taking passengers between Sunderland, Newcastle and the Metrocentre.

Where your journey involves a change between buses, or between bus and Metro, there are a number of modern, safe Interchanges to speed your journey.

Our public transport offers you a safe and comfortable alternative to the car, so why not give it a go? You will probably save a fair bit of cash too!
