The A1 is now fixed

[Byff]

At long last, the stupid 50 mph limit past Stannington has been lifted back to 70 mph.

The best news - the speed camera's have gone aswell.

Hurrah! Mind, I wouldn't be surprised to see lots of scamera vans around there over the next few weeks.

We won't be seeing the mobile partnership vans there either - they've said on the record that it's no longer a problem area as the underpass has been built so cameras aren't required any more.

Now theyre closing it for the weekend at Wetherby to demolish a bridge!

Would that be you travelling south on the A1 over the Tyne on a very congested Friday late afternoon around 3.15 pm? Couldn't identify the driver with the hood up, and the car not travelling sideways in usual fashion .......

Cheers,

I now have a warm glow at my first ever "spotted"
