St Peter's Metro station

St Peter's Metro Station on the Tyne and Wear Metro is the nearest one to the University of Sunderland's St Peter's Campus. The station opened as part of the Sunderland extension in 2002. It is located close to the Wearmouth Bridge and just a short distance south of the old Monkwearmouth Station which closed in 1968 and is now a museum. The National Glass Centre is also located close by.
