Residents and visitors across County Durham will be happy to make the most of a brand new transportation link, which promotes activity and wellbeing across the region.
What began as an ambitious plan from Durham County Council has now came to fruition, in the form of an active travel corridor in Newton Aycliffe - which has recently seen completion after £650,000 in funding from the government's Active Travel Fund.
The corridor itself runs adjacent to the A167 between Moore Lane and St Cuthbert's Way - providing links to Aycliffe Village itself. It also adds to part of the Great North Cycleway - which is a national cycling route stemming from Blyth to Darlington.
