Proposals for a new city centre road link paving the way for a gyratory traffic scheme and bus priority route have been lodged with city planners.
Sunderland City Council has submitted an application to its own planning department for a new road linking the west end of Blandford Street, Broughman Street and Maritime Terrace.
The proposed road would be created through the site of the former Peacocks store, which was destroyed by a fire in 2019.
