There is travel disruption for morning commuters in Sunderland with the Metro line currently suspended between Park Lane and South Hylton.
A Nexus spokesperson said: “Our Metro service is suspended between Park Lane and South Hylton in both directions due to an ongoing issue with the overhead line on Network Rail infrastructure.
“Our service will operate between Park Lane to the Airport and the Airport to Park Lane but at a reduced frequency. Please check the live map on our website and Pop app.
“Ticket acceptance is available on Stagecoach buses in the area, including the 8, 10, 11, and 20, from Sunderland to South Hylton.
