Survey on bridge demolition

LIBERAL Democrats in Lobley Hill, Gateshead, are carrying out a survey of residents about plans to demolish the landmark footbridge on Lobley Hill Bank.

Gateshead Council begins work on demolishing the bridge in February. Traffic lights at the junction with Whickham highway will be installed and additional crossings for pedestrians will also be introduced.

Local campaigner Susan Craig said, “We want to get an idea of the concerns of residents to ensure the Council is fully aware of local opinion.”
