| 116269 |  | Allowing cars onto the peninsular will force shoppers on Saddler Street to get too close to each other. Closing the area to motor vehicles during peak shopping times would help. School pickup for the Chorister School could be via walking. Car access for disabled users would need maintaining. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 116267 |  | When buses are stopped at the temporary bus stops, the bus queue conflicts with the queues for the food shops here. Can the pavement be widened with cones or barriers to ensure there is enough space for social distancing? | Track: Problem track |
| 116261 |  | The pavement on the left hand side of Hallgarth Street approaching the junction is extremely narrow. Can a line of cones protect people stepping out into the road here? | Track: Problem track |
| 108084 |  | The ‘Ride’ | Bicycle: Misc bicycles |
| 101924 |  | Cyclists heading along ncn 7 on the track-bed of the old railway line that carried iron ore up these hills to the erstwhile Consett Iron Works. The line is famously steep around here, so these heavy trains were quite a spectacle in the days of steam. | Other: Infrastructure general |
| 96382 |  | Also Durham council are replacing the dropped curb alongside along the A167 cyclepath and smoothing them. Nice but a bit like glittering a turd. Sure there's better things the money could be spent on t.co/BsjvKX4qqT | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 96381 |  | Newly surfaced link path in Pity Me from road to shared path beside A167. What does Durham council do. Bung up a no cycling sign of course. #slowclap t.co/GLbxO65cLm | General sign/notice: Problem signs |
| 91609 |  | Crossing the Tees at Whorlton on NCN route 165 | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 71203 |  | Broken cycle parking stand. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 71202 |  | Cycle route rejoins carriageway (although there is no signage to indicate this, just a painted lane indicating to leave the carriageway in the other direction), having just crossed to this side of the road at #71201. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 71201 |  | Cycle route crosses to the right-hand side of the road, only to go onto the carriageway under the viaduct. A complete nonsense! | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 71200 |  | Traffic island hopping cycle route that ends up joining the carriageway of the road on the right anyway. However, the road on the right is signed as 'No Entry except buses'. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 71199 |  | Route signs for cycle route avoiding the main road, rather than providing for cycles on the main road. Route 70 is shown in brackets here, unlike #71197, which is meant to mean this isn't route 70 but leads there, in both directions. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 71198 |  | A damaged cycle parking stand in Durham. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 71197 |  | Route sign directs cyclists onto road signed as 'No Entry except buses'. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 71161 |  | This young lad waited for ages before crossing on red during a gap in traffic. I did likewise just afterwards. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 71160 |  | It is easier to return to the carriageway at this driveway dropped kerb rather than the location specially designed for this purpose (see #71159). Also, the original implementation of this cycle provision included a 'Give Way' triangle at each driveway, now blacked out. The toucan crossing only has a call box on one side (toucans are meant to have one to each side of the crossing point), and since it has a nearside signal, it is facing away from on-coming cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 71159 |  | Footway cycling provision ends abruptly at sharp corner to return onto carriageway. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 71158 |  | Blacked-out shared-use footway cycle markings approaching roundabout (see also #71157). The carriageway has recently been widened at this point. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 71157 |  | Blacked-out cycle path markings on the footway around the signalised roundabout. So is it still available for cycle use? There are no signs here to say it is. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 71156 |  | Despite the risks, a cyclist chooses the road through the signalised roundabout in preference to the island-hopping shared-use footway route around it. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 71155 |  | A bus stop on the shared-use footway into Chester-le-Street. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 71154 |  | A kissing gate on the Wolsingham Wheelchair Walk, attached to which is a sign reading "Footpath only, No Cycling". | Obstruction: Infrastructure obstructions |
| 71153 |  | No Cycling on the Wolsingham Wheelchair Walk alongside the River Wear | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 71073 |  | Interesting sign on the way to the Locomotion museum. This road does not appear to be available for general motor traffic use. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |

| 70970 |  | A toucan crossing across North Burns, and the entrance to the bus station on South Burns, and just visible the end of the marketplace in between. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 70969 |  | Restrictions on through traffic on Front Street described as "Pedestrian Zone", even though it is a busy bus route! | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
