The bit between the Northern Spire and Pallion seems to be open now but where does that bit go to?
Is the whole road open?

I can confirm that the whole road was open when I used it yesterday.Sunderland Nut wrote: ↑07 Nov 2021, 16:24 The bit between the Northern Spire and Pallion seems to be open now but where does that bit go to?

I tried that stretch of road out and it's 30mph for half the way, then 40mph.Crawford wrote: ↑14 Nov 2021, 12:06I can confirm that the whole road was open when I used it yesterday.Sunderland Nut wrote: ↑07 Nov 2021, 16:24 The bit between the Northern Spire and Pallion seems to be open now but where does that bit go to?

Yes, I am going to whinge again because it was supposed to be a dual carriageway from Nissan to the Sunderland Docks.
Dual carriageways are supposed to be efficient

In my opinion, the whole road between the Docks and the beginning of the Sunderland Highway has taken a step back.
It will relieve traffic on the QA Bridge and allow emergency vehicles to pass with ease but it's a miss from me I'm affraid.
