Listed Building

26th April

I've noticed that the Grade 2 listed building at address 50 Haughton Green, Darlington as installed new UPV downstairs windows. My understand is that planning permission needs to be obtained before this type of work can be carried out on a listed building. Being a local resident I have checked the local planning register and can not see any application for this work.

No lane markings

17th April

There are no lane markings to indicate which lane to use to continue on the A66. There are two lanes approaching the roundabout, and one lane to come off. There is also no right turn so cars use both lanes to use the same exit and there have been many near misses. It is unclear from the lack of road markings which lane to use.

Long grass blocking view at junctions on A66 between Stockton and Darlington

28th May

Long grass along the stretch of the A66 between Stockton and Darlington is obstructing the view for vehicles joining at short junctions such as Long Newton and Sadberge. It is also very difficult for vehicles travelling on the road to see that there are vehicles joining.

Pothole that is deep enough which runs across the road

21st May

To my understanding, this pothole has been filled previously but has appeared back. I've seen many cars including my own struggle to avoid this due to it being on a busy road. The pothole itself runs across the full width of the road, my car has a low suspension and I feel it is causing considerable damage. This has been like this for months now, doesn't seem to get done properly. The location is just as you come to the junction towards either stockton Road or Norton road in sadberge.

Sunken drain cover

4th March

This issue has been a problem for a few months now. The drain looks like it has sunken, however this is in the driving line of the crossroads and cannot be avoided, unless you drive on the wrong side of the road, which is not possible.

Three to four potholes in a continuos line down middle of the road

19th February

These have been here a while but due to the constant flooding and farm vehicles have got steadily worse over the last month, one appears to have been half filled but the others are still a big issue

1 metre pot hole after the bridge out of Sadberge on Middleton road

12th February

The pot hole was full of water, which I went in, causing my tyre pop. So unfortunately I need new tyre and will be claiming from the council. Looking closer it has white marks around it. I went back and placed a cone in the pot hole to prevent further problems.
