Belmont ind estate when coming out of the estate at the traffic lights it’s confusing as there are 2 lanes you can only go left or right the right lane is clearly to turn right, but the left lane is to turn left and right, since when was a left lane ever used to turn right? I’ve been part of this lane confusion and witnessed others confusion here, theres 2 directions and 2 lanes so why have the council iver complicated this? Leff lane should be for left and and the right lane should be to turn right.

Sand on road, 10th October

Tue, 10 Oct 2017 10:08:23 +0100
54.771965 -1.583877

Someone has spilled a quantity of sand on the road between the Durham School corner and the drive to the tennis club. It has been there a few days now, on the westbound side of the road. I think it could be hazardous for cyclists as there is sufficient sand that it makes a loose surface on the road. It could also lead to a car skidding, though the normal route a car would take is free of sand because it has been displaced by the cars driving through.
