The path across the bridge is quite narrow and there are many bikes that don't slow down for pedestrians. Is there some sort of calming measure that could be put in place to slow the bikes and scooters down, maybe rumble strips at … [more]
This section is a dirt track which is frequently muddy and full of large puddles. It also has no lighting at all, making it undesirable to use when dark. Repairing the holes & ruts in the path and resurfacing are a must. Adding lighting … [more]

For people that want to get from Keelmans Way up to street level, to visit local shops such as Pumphreys Coffee, this path is the most direct way. However it’s very uneven, narrow and overgrown. If it were cleaned up it would also allow … [more]
The path from Stella into Blaydon is relatively narrow, unlit and doesn't feel safe for vulnerable people to walk to the train station. I appreciate the fences either side are there for a reason, but the tarmac surface doesn't even stretch … [more]
Parking needs to be enforced here. cars are parking across the whole pavement on a very dangerous corner.
Very narrow foot path for so many pedestrians. Would be good to widen footpaths and prioritise children getting to school safely.
Pavement through Rowlands Gill village centre is too narrow and can be intimidating, especially with the high volume of HGV traffic.
Expand and improve public right of way network to create a traffic-free route from Chopwell Woods to the rest of High Spen
Junction narrowing needed to reduce crossing distance and continuous/ blended crossing needed (good examples in Crawcrook and Prudhoe)
Junction narrowing needed to reduce crossing distance outside the school and continuous/ blended crossing needed (good examples in Crawcrook and Prudhoe)
Junction narrowing needed to reduce crossing distance and continuous/ blended crossing needed (good examples in Crawcrook and Prudhoe)
Crossing improvement needed over Woodside Ln. There are lots of traffic movements around this central space which need rationalising (see comment above regarding Lane Head and Hexham Old Rd). This junction head needs to be narrowed … [more]
This is a really hazardous crossing point, with vehicles able to take this junction at speed. No reason to have left and right turn lanes on the other arm of the junction, so I suggest this side is stopped up to create a continuous footway … [more]
Narrow pavements and excessive vehicle speeds make this popular route really uncomfortable to walk along. Suggest it is reduced to single-carriageway with access only/ one-way?
Visibility out of Nursery Lane is very poor for all types of traffic, and cars come around the corner of Carr Hill Road too fast - maybe the 20mph past the school should be extended?
Pavement is wide enough however people always park their cars on it, despite the No Parking signs on the wall, meaning pedestrians have to walk along the road. Oddly, bollards have been added to pavements in other (much quieter) areas of … [more]
New housing has been built over a number of paths which have been in use for decades. This type of piecemeal nibbling away at footpaths is a significant deterrent to walking as it makes journeys on foot longer and more convoluted.
There appears to be building work which has blocked a path which has been used by people on foot for several decades. This type of piecemeal nibbling away at footpaths is a significant deterrent to walking as it makes journeys on foot … [more]
Poor quality of street lighting at the top of Lynnholme Gardens makes this a very dark section for pedestrians and cyclists during winter. Additional lamp column required to light the top section.
PATH IS APPROX 1 METRE WIDE AND PEDESTRIANS PASS WITHIN 30CM OF EACH OTHER FACE TO FACE AS ONLY ONE SIDE OF BRIDGE PEDESTRIANISED. IN COVID 19 UNACCEPTABLE RISK. ALSO UNSAFE DUE TO PROXIMITY OF PEDESTRIANS. BUSY ROAD WITH LIMITED VIEW OF … [more]
Stop parking on pavements as this is narrowing pavements and causing vulnerable pedestrians having to share narrow road space with fast moving vehicles irrespective of ineffective speed humps!!
Avenue Road NE8 4JH is a busy avenue on route to Saltwell Park, the Leisure Centre, Library and soon to be Shipcote School, vehicles constantly park on the pavements restricting pedestrians access and making them use the road to make … [more]
More signs are needed to encourage dog walkers to 'scoop the poop' of their dogs into a dog waste bag, or use "stick to flick" to get rid of dog faeces into the undergrowth either side of paths like Woodhouses Lane. I've put the marker near … [more]
There is a very slippy slope down from Parkway (road) to Woodhouses Lane, the path that was resurfaced with grit in late 2019 – early 2020. People are attempting to clamber down the muddy slope, especially for exercise during lockdown. … [more]
If you come down the path (nicely paved) from the Poachers Pocket on Market Lane and go under the A1, you’re faced with a choice of two routes, the most useful of which is in poor condition. The rightmost is more useful as it goes towards … [more]
The bus stops on Consett Road are in the wrong place. They needs to be east of the Alwinton Gardens junction in both directions, nearer a larger number of residents and to Emmanuel School, and where there’s plenty of land to accommodate … [more]
A considerable amount of residents in the residential area walk and bike, should consider createing this area from Prince Consort Road down to the library should be considered for only pedestrians, bikes, and public transportation. This … [more]
The lack of paved footpaths at Metro Centre West is very noticeable, especially around the junction of Pinetree Way, Marconi Way, and Hollinside Road. People who walk to work or shop on the retail park have worn paths in the grass in some … [more]
There is a rough path through the trees on the embankment next to Crowley Road (the back lane part). People use it walking down from Clavering Road, and then they go down the steps to Holy Trinity Church and Swalwell village. The back lane … [more]
Safe crossing improvements necessary for walkers and those using the shops. There is limited visibility for pedestrians and cars speed around the bend.
Very narrow footpath forces pedestrians onto the road by a blind corner. There is a history of collisions and near misses here. A crossing would be welcome.
Brewery Bank is very slippy in frosty and snowy weather. Please put some steps in for people walking down from Crowley Road. There's plenty of pavement that can be partly used to save us all from sliding down on our arses. You could … [more]
There is some terrible speeding down Milton Road, despite it supposedly being a 20 mph zone. How about installing a speed camera here, or getting a speed camera van to come here every so often, to make the situation safer for pedestrians? … [more]
We’d like some more lights in Swalwell Park as well please. It’s lit down the west side, and along the top south side but if you’re not if going to or from the Lumley Avenue. It should suit cyclists as well as pedestrians. Quite a lot of … [more]
Could we please have some lighting in Chase Park in Whickham? Quite a lot of people pass through after dark. Small lamp posts from the central meeting point of the main paths, as far as the four entrances would do, there's no need to … [more]
Drop kerb for buggies... the kerb is quite uneven here. Tidy it up while work is going on in the area
A ridiculously sparse arrangement of bus stops, next to old people’s homes! Despite being slightly up from the junction with North View, buses turning right into North View don’t pick up or set down at the stop currently used by services … [more]
The short and unusually-shaped approx 20 metre back lane between Market Lane and Long Rigg Road suffers from drivers turning quickly and dangerously into it at both ends. There’s not much safe space for pedestrians as the pavement is very … [more]
Crossing Market Lane near the Swalwell roundabout is like taking your life in your hands. Drivers come off the roundabout too fast and unpredictably, as you can’t always predict where they are going as there are so many exists, and the road … [more]
A better way for pedestrians to cross the entrance and exit dual-carriageway road to the A1 at the Swalwell roundabout is needed. The northbound should be reduced to one lane, as it quickly narrows to one lane anyway, by building out the … [more]
A central pedestrian refuge is needed at the east end of Sands Road, at the Swalwell roundabout. It’s currently quite scary crossing here partly because the roundabout is so large (in terms of road surface on which you can drive) and … [more]
It’s dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists around the junction of Market Lane and Napier Road (which is quite busy because it is one of the few ways in by car to a huge area of housing). The main cause is people parking close to the … [more]
The north west side of Sunniside’s main street (A692) is a nightmare for pedestrians and cyclists, because of poorly arranged parking and vehicle circulation. Both sides of the road have unusual kerbed cycle lanes, which in parts is at a … [more]
Cars parking up on the pavement while waiting for kids to come out of the top gate, making it difficult to social distance when walking along this pavement
The walking facilities around Shield Avenue in Swalwell are awful, especially for those walking or cycling down from residential areas to Metrocentre. The pavement on the west side where Clavering Road joins Market Lane is ridiculously … [more]
Steps are needed down from Hollinside Way towards the red quadrant of MetroCentre, as far south as possible. The footpath next to Hollinside Way, shared with cyclists, stretches much further to the north, and is a long way round, and … [more]
Install acrylic glass walls (e.g. Perspex) between the Tyne Bridge walkways and the road (as a traffic noise and wind barrier) and over the existing balustrade (outer walls) to protect against suicide jumping (and wind). A ceiling might … [more]
If you walk across the Tyne Bridge from Newcastle (east side footpath) to go to Sage or St. Mary’s Heritage Centre, you have to walk right to the south end of the bridge. Why not have a staircase down from the bridge to the path at the back … [more]
Getting from the west side of the Tyne Bridge north end, to the east side, involves either going over at the two stage pedestrian traffic lights. This involves holding up all the traffic, in two stages, ironically after they have takes a … [more]
A mini roundabout and pedestrian refuge is needed at the top of Dunston Bank, to assist pedestrians and cyclists going along Whickham Highway B6317. The pedestrian refuge at the top of Dunston Bank would work with the mini roundabout to … [more]
Prevent water from falling onto the pavement (puddles and dirty water pouring from the bridge make avoiding pedestrians difficult)
Build a pedestrian/cycling subway to cross the A167 like on Newcastle side or bridge (avoid interrupting traffic and makes pedestrian/cycling crossing faster)
Despite the horrendous (especially for cyclists and pedestrians) roundabout junction (A694/B6317) near here, the opportunity to exploit the cycle path passing under Hexham Road has not been taken. Steps (and possibly non-stepped paths) … [more]
The original Watergate Pit miners’ path across Washingwell Woods is in a terrible state, particularly the steps up the north side of the valley, despite absorption of the area into Watergate Park. It is a paved path that used to be lit but … [more]
There are some ludicrously long gaps between bus stops in this area around the north (west) end of Kingsway, especially now that Go Northeast have services on the number 6 that have a circular terminus on Sunniside Front Street. Perhaps a … [more]
Near the east end of Whickham Highway, and not far from the entrance of the carpark for Watergate Park, there is a missing bus stop. The next bus stops are quite far away in all three directions, bearing in mind some buses coming from the … [more]
There needs to be proper steps and a cycle ramp down from Parkway onto the recently resurfaced Woodhouses Lane bridle path, a few metres west of the west end of Parkdale Rise.
Like a lot of places around the borough, this road is very steep, and it's north facing, so gets iced up quickly. It is just not usable in frosty and snowy conditions. Worse, at least in some places there is a grassy area to the side that … [more]
On hills all over Gateshead, not just West Street, consideration ought to be given to having covered outdoor escalators, like the ones in Hong Kong (“Central-Mid-Levels escalator and walkway system”). After all, they exist inside shopping … [more]
Although the lack of a solution to the muddy and potholed middle of Quality Row Road is allegedly caused by uncertainty over the ownership of that short stretch, it may be possible to build a footpath and cycle path on the grassy area to … [more]
Path not accessible anymore due to overgrowth. This route of way provides an alternative to the road between Marley Hill and Sunniside
No path between Winlaton and High Spen via Barlow. Lots of people walk and run this route. Unfortunately also very dangerous due to speeding traffic
It is very boggy when it rains it needs more Of a pathway, cleaned up some trees moved also something for the kids would be great ideally with a large fence so it can be locked on a nighttime and to keep dogs off
There is no pavement along the road towards new houses. This is an increasingly used pathway with space along the verge for a path, but no current pathway.
Path from Coniston Ave to Washingwell Lane is only about 2 feet wide because of overgrown vegatation. I will now be walking my grandsons to St Marys School along this path to Dockendale Rd to access school, in accordance with guidelines … [more]
Peth Lane is frequently used by pedestrians as well as cyclists. Path needs to be cleared and lighting repaired.
1.The path is simply not wide enough in places to accommodate the growing number of pedestrians, joggers and Lycra-clad cyclists. It’s only a matter of time before an accident happens. 2. With Askew Road now being turned into a bus lane … [more]
