The ongoing issues with Haymarket Metro Station's escalators are set to be resolved as part of a £2m upgrade.
Nexus, the operator of the Tyne and Wear Metro Service, has announced that it is investing in new escalators and lifts across the Metro network. It comes after passengers have faced months of disruption due to faults with all three of the escalators at Haymarket Metro Station.
As engineers worked to repair the escalators earlier this year, the station was temporarily closed for a time and then operated as an exit-only station.
