Numerous potholes the entire length of the road, from the River Derwent at Shotley Bridge right up to the junction with A68 at Carterway Heads. Very dangerous road surface condition on a narrow road which is heavily used by people from the Shotley Bridge and surrounding area to get to Hexham and beyond., 16th April

Potholes, patching work that is washed out almost immediately. Rough, bumpy surface which is dangerous when used at high speed, and because it is a long and quite straight road at the A68 end, people do often drive very fast.

Dangerous surface B6278 from Shotley Bridge up to the A68, 16th April

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 11:05:03 +0100
54.869393 -1.89038

The road surface for the stretch of B6278 road from Shotley Bridge up to Carterway Heads is in dangerous condition and needs major resurfacing work as a matter of urgency. It is not good to drive on, it is positively dangerous to cycle on, particularly down hill where there is broken surface, potholes, ruts, uneven repair patches. The nature of the lighting through kerbside trees also makes it hard to pick out these hazards, so they are difficult to avoid. Please sort out urgently.

Street Light is Out and is Identified as Northumberland County Council by Post Code!, 15th February

Thu, 15 Feb 2024 12:42:19 +0000
54.86951 -1.863208

I have tried to report the street light at DH8 9TE on three separate occasions, where you have just updated me with this: ‘ New updates on Intermittent Problem with Light on Street / Road Lamp-post at DH8 9TE Thank you for your report. I have checked your photos and identified the lamp on Google maps. However, this lamp is not showing on our database as one we maintain and is most likely part of Durham County Council's inventory. This report has now been closed. Thank You’ I have subsequently been on the ‘Gov.co.uk’ website to try and report this again, however it has identified this Post Code as being the responsibility of Northumberland County Council. I am therefore unable to report it to Durham County Council, and as it is on the Northumberland side of the border I doubt whether they would accept responsibility. I would therefore respectfully suggest that perhaps your records need to be updated to include this lamppost, however if you do disagree that this is not your responsibility, then could I please request that you notify Durham County Council as I am clearly unable to do this as I have explained. Many thanks.

Intermittent Problem with Light on Street / Road Lamp-post at DH8 9TE, 14th February

Wed, 14 Feb 2024 19:06:23 +0000
54.86951 -1.863208

I have reported this problem on two previous occasions and was first advised that it had been repaired, and then that you found no fault - so not sure if it is an intermittent fault. I have provided two photographs which will hopefully assist with identifying it properly, you will note that one photo shows the street light off, and the other as it came back on very briefly (it is currently still off). It is situated just over Shotley Bridge (bridge over the River Derwent), and on the Northumberland side, where it is literally just over the bridge, outside Derwent Dene Lodge (DH8 9TE) and near to the entrance of the Bridge Island housing estate - but it is not the ones on the estate. It actually lights-up that section of road next to the bridge, as well as the pedestrian footpath area too. Obviously at this time of year it makes this safer for motorists, pedestrians, and potentially reduces incidents of criminality too. I would greatly appreciate it if you could please check this out again, and hopefully identify the correct one from the photos and Postcode. Many thanks.
