Campaign for path improvements

LIBERAL Democrat councillors are campaigning in the village of Greenside, near Ryton in Gateshead for improvements to the path at Ellison Terrace and Lister Avenue.

A petition by local residents calling for improvements was handed in by Councillor Noel Rippeth to Gateshead Council in November.

Cllr Rippeth, and his two ward colleagues Sally Danys and Derek Anderson are pressing for money from the Ward Based Scheme, a special fund to support local projects, to be used to upgrade the paths.

“We are hoping to secure the funding to ensure the path is improved,” said Sally.
