🌊 Ambition for a Clean Tyne: Setting a New Standard for Our River & Coast Every time heavy rain hits raw sewage flows into our river. Cleaning up after the latest plastic pollution event shouldn't be where our ambition ends. Getting back to a polluted "baseline" isn't enough.

A harsh take on this as someone who often drives this road for work: it will never be “dualled to the Scots border”. Every time that the unacceptable level of road casualties hits the news as it tragically has now, the debate gets hijacked by this demand www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-e...

In this instance something happened to the driver. But in a photo nothing shows up more despite all our campaigning this section of Preston Road is a mess. The 1960s fencing (safety hazard), the yellow paint, excess speeds. The kids in the background deserve better, they’ve told us they want better

Shocking scenes on Preston Road. This section of street is systematically unsafe, a relic of the 1960s design, doesn’t belong in our borough today. Guardrail crush risk, excess speed, & yet we’ve got Tory Cllrs over the road who think yellow paint on the road will solve anything 🤯🤷🏼 Enough is enough
