Durham County Council is currently consulting the public on a proposal to introduce a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) at the junction of Deadman's bank and Station Road, Blackhall Rocks.
The proposal includes the potential erection of a padlocked gate at the junction which would prohibit all motor vehicles from Deadman's bank. Emergency vehicles, pedestrians, wheelchair users and cyclists will retain access to the area.
Please note that this is a public consultation exercise only and not a formal recommendation by the council. If the scheme is to progress in future there will be further public consultation on the full content and implications of the TRO.
I think it is vital that everyone has the opportunity to have a say on these proposals so please let me know of your comments as soon as possible:
