Following on from a number of  years of issues for businesses and residents on Beech Road in Framwellgate Moor,  I  have now been successful in getting the council to consult on bringing in a 3 hr waiting for the area.

I have asked that a larger area than normal is consulted (going into part of Lilac Avenue) as there could be some impact there. One of the key questions whether this needs to be in place on Saturdays or just Mon to Friday. To comment by email please email the officer in charge of this at sarah.stoker@durham.gov.uk

I am confident that for businesses and shoppers here, this would be a big improvement as shoppers will find it easier to park.

I have uploaded the consultation letter and the map of the proposals can be accessed by clicking here Consultation Plan – Unclassified Beech Road, Framwellgate Moor, so if there is anyone from the wider area who wishes to make comments they can see how to.
