Upper Coquet Valley road deteriorating, says Byatt family

What happened: The Byatt family has reported that sections of the road in the Upper Coquet valley are eroding into the river, describing it as possibly the worst road in the UK.

Why it matters:

  • The damaged road affects local residents' access and safety.
  • Ongoing erosion could lead to costly repairs and isolation of the area.

MNN Take: Road erosion in rural areas can disrupt daily life and require urgent maintenance to prevent further damage and ensure safe travel.
