The long awaited Pedestrian Crossing has been completed on Hexham Road in Swalwell, Gateshead, adjacent to the new Lidl store.
Residents and local Liberal Democrat councillors Mary Wallace, Peter Craig and Chris Ord have been campaigning for a number of years for a crossing on what is one of Swalwell’s busiest roads. “This is excellent news for local residents” said Councillor Mary Wallace.
“Hexham Road carries thousands of cars every day and residents were finding it increasingly difficult to cross to the bus stop. With the arrival of the new store a crossing is even more important for local residents.”
