Major Metro line to be closed most of next week to replace damaged overhead lines in North Tyneside

A busy Metro line in North Tyneside is set to be closed for most of next week due to emergency repair works.

The repairs will take place over four days as Metro operators Nexus look to undertake repairs to overhead wires that were damaged by the recent summer heatwaves.

The line between South Gosforth and Shiremoor will be shut from Tuesday 30 August to Friday 2 September. It will re-open as usual on Saturday 3 September.
