Eight weeks of road closures to start in town

CLOSURES will be in place along Bedlington’s Station Road for up to eight weeks as part of ongoing work on the town’s new Active Travel Corridor.

The closure will be staged in sections to maintain access for businesses where possible.

The £9 million Active Travel Corridor, funded by the Government's Levelling Up fund, will connect the west and east sides of Bedlington.

The council say it will provide segregated walking and cycling facilities to “better connect” residents to employment, education and leisure facilities within the town.
