Restoration of the Tyne Bridge is set to get underway from 2nd April 2024, as refurbishment works move on to the main bridge deck.
Lane restrictions will come into force which will see capacity reduced to one lane in each direction, as engineers start work on the main structural repairs on the Gateshead side of the bridge, next to the tower.
