Impressed by magnificent Northern Spire Bridge
Congratulations to Sunderland City Council, as in recent weeks Sunderland has certainly been put on the map, very impressively, with the event of the Tall Ships, Air Show, and then the opening of the Northern Spire Bridge.
Our river and waters died when the shipyards closed, but the North Spire has brought our tired river back to life again, with the added well designed roads on both sides of the river.

Further congratulations to Sunderland City Councillors for paying tribute, and naming two approach roads after two prominent well deserved local people, Sir Tom Cowie and the late Councillor Paul Watson, who was leader for many years and played a major role in the dream to develop such an iconic landmark.
