Traffic delays

Reported via mobile in the Traffic lights (NH) category anonymously at 17:28, Monday 24 March 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7330446.

There are no traffic lights on the section coming from Denton Burn onto the A69 to Hexham. This causes huge traffic delays up to the top of the west road. There are traffic lights on every other entry to the round about but not from Denton Burn to the A69. When the traffic is heavy, it doesn’t allow for cars to enter the round about from Denton burn which backs up the traffic horrendously. Please can this been looked into

This report is now closed to updates from the public. You can make a new report in the same location.
