Tyne Bridge's 'disgraceful' state emphasised by Great North Run, leaders say

Runners who took part in the Great North Run commented on the state of the bridge

Sunday's half-marathon route took runners across the Grade II* landmark twice and led to negative comments about its condition on social media. "We have put bids in and we are urging the government to come up with the funding to bring it back to its former glory."Signs of deterioration were clearly visible in television coverage of the run on Sundayin June for more than £18m to cover the costs of the Tyne Bridge's first major maintenance in 20 years. A decision is expected this autumn.and the central motorway was also submitted to the government two years ago by Transport for the North. That is also awaiting approval.
