Stop the proposed cycle lane on Stamfordham road

Road is busy enough without adding cycle lane

This would cause more congestion in an already busy small village.

The road is busy enough without a cycle lane. The traffic will be horrendous. New housing estates everywhere but roads remain same

This will make congestion so much worse, cars will be idling and emissions will rise

How many will use this cycle lane ? It’s ridiculous the traffic is slow enough

Removing the trees in this area would be criminal. We’ve already lost a lot of green areas for new housing estates, the trees create a wonderful vibe along the road. Doesn’t make sense environmentally to remove the trees for a couple of people who cycle. I rarely see anyone on bikes unless they’re children

Pointless

As a resident for over 36 years the congestion on the roads through westerhope is horrendous to add a cycle lane would be a terrible addition to the already horrific congestion

As a resident for over 36 years it has never been worse for traffic through Westerhope

Daft idea. We’ve got hundreds of new houses just off St John’s Estate near Callerton. The road infrastructure is going to struggle with the additional vehicles morning and evening. Adding a cycle lane into the mix is beyond stupid and also, I might add, dangerous. The additional roadworks needed would heavily inconvenience current road users. I don’t believe there’s the need and would need to see proof that an adequate number of cyclists would use the proposed cycle path. I doubt they have the data to show this.

This road is already overstretched due to huge callerton homes development. Traffic is horrendous without a cycle lane!

Not acceptable no need for cycle lane

There are more than enough unused cycle lanes in Newcastle, they keep being installed and then cyclists don't use them, instead they ride 4 abreast in the road causing traffic jams. Also they petition for these cycle lanes and then when they come to a red traffic light mount the pavement and cross at pedestrian crossings and then rejoin the road after the lights so essentially indirectly running a red light, they either want to use and follow the rules of the road or they don't.

No way can you expect a cycle lane to work in this road

Ridiculous idea for an already congested area

A total joke

The congestion at rush hour through Westerhope is already horrendous since the building of new Callerton and North Wallbottle estates. This is not necessary and will make issues even worse

Not in favour. And chopping all the trees down for it is madness

No need.
