I believe DCC are looking to build a brand new County Hall, that can't be right, given the current economic conditions.
They had one and sold it to the university as a political point scoring exercise.
I can’t work out what the fuck difference all that work on the a19 slip road near the lodge lights will make. Tail backs to seaton all the time.
That is only going ahead so that Sunderland and Durham councils can get planning permission for developments on their respective areas around the A1018. It will make little difference to the residents of Seaton Lane as nearly all the traffic at the lodge turns right or goes straight down Byron Walk anyway, and realistically no one is going to go a much longer route around.
