Footpath / pavement in disrepair, 24th January
The footpath between Esh village and the top of Langley Park bank is in a state of total disrepair. With further erosion it is likely to become unusable, and I feel it could potentially be dangerous with it being in a 60mph zone.
As there are few buses into Esh, this pavement is used a lot when walking to / from Langley Park, so it would be great if it could be upgraded.
Thanks

Weather station inoperative, 18th September
The road weather station at Ushaw Moor has been out of action for a significant period of time. All that appears on the DCC website is an apology. Two other weather stations in County Durham which went offline about the same time were repaired some time ago. The UM station needs to be fixed before the winter. Why the delay ?
