Tyne Pass Scheme at the Tyne Tunnels
We are supporting TT2 who are implementing a barrierless open-road tolling scheme at the Tyne Tunnels. The aims of the new scheme are to modernise the payment system.
North East Bus Enhanced Partnership
Our bus network is a vital part of our public transport system which is hugely important to our local economy, society and environment.
Go Ultra Low North East
The Go Ultra Low North East programme aims to raise an awareness of Ultra Low Emission Vehicles or ULEVs, encouraging consumers to consider using electric vehicles (EVs) in the future. We’re also working to develop new fast charging facilities across the region.

As a region, the North East relies on this vital line for all of our services to London, Scotland and the Midlands, as well as to Leeds and Manchester.
