Service status
No Metro disruptions
When we are running a good service the status will show as ‘No Metro disruptions’. Any delays (less than 5 minutes) to service will be announced via the station PA system and passenger information boards. If delays occur resulting in trains running more than 15 minutes later than advertised the status will be updated by an automatic travel alert system.
26 May 2018 - No trains between Byker and Tynemouth
In either direction all day Saturday 26 May and on Sunday 27 May until about 6.30pm, to allow for renewal of overhead power lines. A replacement bus service, number 900 will be calling at or close to all stations in the affected area. Some late night buses from Byker towards Tynemouth on Saturday will continue to Longbenton (alighting only after Tynemouth) and four late night buses to Byker will continue to Monument, for specific details view the replacement bus timetable. Metro tickets and passes will be valid on the bus service and the driver will sell tickets.
