UPDATE: Looking good at Hylton Bridge! When it's finished in March we'll have transformed 1.5km of dusty old path into a new 'Flexipave' surface. The path between Sunderland and Washington will be wider and safer with improved drainage. Made possible thanks to @nationalhighways.bsky.social

Fantastic to hear Dr Anna Dixon championing the safety of women and girls in plans for outdoor spaces. Considering the safety of women and girls means safer spaces for everyone.
