'Someone will be killed' - Resident's fury as 'promised' sign in Langley Moor isn't installed

A concerned resident who fears "someone will be killed" on a 30mph road in County Durham has slammed the council after he said a "promised" sign has still not yet been installed.

Langley Moor resident Mark Richardson said he has been trying for four years to get more 30mph signage on the High Street (A690) over safety concerns. He said he was told by Durham County Council that a flashing sign would be installed in January however residents are still waiting.

Mark, 59, who has lived in the area for 26 years, said: "I've been trying for four years to get more signs on the A690 and I was promised a flashing sign in January. I was over the moon, I was telling people we were getting this sign and it will make people slow down.
