Consultation on Proposed Highway Improvement Proposals:
All residents should by now have received consultation information from Durham County Council regarding the proposed highway improvements at Toft Hill and High Etherley.
The Parish Council recognises how vital it is for our community to be fully consulted on these plans and strongly urges every resident to make their views known. Please take a few moments to complete and return your paper questionnaire. Alternatively, you can use the link below to submit your feedback online:
The Parish Council’s Position
The Parish Council finds the County Council's current road safety proposals to be seriously lacking, and believes they fall far short of the measures required to ensure community safety.
Consequently, we have submitted a formal consultation response detailing the essential safety measures necessary to safeguard our community and improve the quality of life for our residents.
