Bedlington South Level Crossing will be closed to vehicles during the works, however pedestrians will still be able to use the crossing using the footway. During this period a road diversion will be in place via Melrose Villas & Jubilee Terrace and St Johns Road. Please see below for an image of the diversion route.
Bus Route Diversions
Service X21 will follow the diversion below and not miss any bus stops.
Service 2 will run a loop via Stead Lane/Rothesay Terrace & Station Road so that buses serve their usual stops in each direction and stops at Palace Road & St Johns Road won't be served during the closures.
What to expect during the works
During this work there is potential for noise, site lighting and vibration, and delays to your journey but we will aim to keep disruption as minimal as practically possible and within the terms agreed with Northumberland County Council. We have continuous noise monitoring equipment installed onsite to capture in real-time the noise levels being generated.
