In the pipeline during the year is the complete closure of the main road into town from the A69 trunk road, Rotary Way, for six weeks to allow for the re-waterproofing of the bridge over the railway line.
There will be massive disruption on Corbridge Road as work begins on the new bus station, which includes work on the two mini-roundabouts closer to the site.
Improvements to the pedestrian crossing on Station Road are also scheduled, along with the resurfacing of Alemouth Road.

This is the one I snagged at Peterlee, this morning.

I could be scratching my head for a while about that one.
