Reports

Earlier this year, a team was commissioned by the Tyne & Wear Integrated Transport Authority (TWITA) to:

Find out stakeholder perceptions of the Tyne Pedestrian and Cyclist Tunnels

To ask stakeholders what improvements they would like to see to the tunnels to increase usage

The findings were submitted to the TWITA for review and a £4 million refurbishment programme was confirmed in July 2010. To see a copy of this report, click here.
