The Tyne and Wear Metro is a light rail network linking South Tyneside and Sunderland with Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside and Newcastle Airport. The network opened in stages from August 1980, and now serves a total of 60 stations, with two lines covering 48.2 miles of track.
The Tyne and Wear Metro has been described as the "first modern light rail system in the United Kingdom". In 2018–19, an estimated 36.4 million passenger journeys were made on the Metro, making it the second-most used segregated light rail network in the United Kingdom, after London's Docklands Light Railway .
