The #Metro to #Washington project, supported by a new £1.85bn funding deal secured by North East Mayor Kim McGuinness, will extend the #Tyne and Wear Metro by 13km, linking Pelaw and South Hylton via Washington. The extension includes new stations at Follingsby, Washington North, and Washington South, using former #railway lines like part of the #Leamside Line. Public engagement events will be held from mid-June, offering residents a chance to meet #Nexus project teams, ask questions, and provide feedback. The first #trains are expected by 2033, marking the biggest Metro expansion in over 30 years. The consultation includes nine drop-in sessions across the region, with dates running from 17 June to 1 July.

Some bridges between Gateshead and Newcastle upon Tyne

The Glasshouse, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, England, viewed from the Newcastle side of Tyne Bridge.

A photo in landscape format, taken from the approach to Tyne Bridge on the Newcastle side of the River Tyne.
At the bottom of the image are chimney pots on houses on that side of the river; above and beyond them, on the other side of the river, filling the rest of the frame, the curved glass- and steel-panelled side and roof of 'The Glasshouse' can be seen.
It'a a cloudy afternoon, so the panels just reflect the grey of the sky; but slots in the cowlings on three of the chimney pots 'echo' the ventilation slots in the Glasshouse's roof.

Just responded to the Environment Agency's (EA) consultation about a proposed enforcement levy on England's water companies (aka 'sewerage undertakers'), thinking about what would help the Ouseburn in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Follow the link for a very detailed description.

A cityscape next to a river, streets and roofs dusted with snow. The view is essentially Georgian and Victorian, with little evidence of 20th century construction

Media: Ei uutisoi, että Sebastian Tynkkynen kirjoitti eilen Shitterissä, että Yle on poliittinen vihollinen.

Sen sijaan: Media (Hesari) julkaisee tänään pitkän artikkelin Tynen "somesodasta" - taistelusta EU:n digisääntelyä vastaan.

En jaa, koska miksi jakaa psk:a. Plus on maksumuurin takana.

Treating myself to a day off just for myself. Out on the paddle board on the Tyne this morning. A short train ride to foreign territory* this afternoon for Carlisle Beer Festival. Cheers! 🍻

* Cumbria

#beer #SUP #Northumberland #Cumbria #Tyne #Camra

A view down a very pink paddle board , looking down a dark-ish river with trees on both sides. There's nobody else on the river, it's mostly calm with just some gentle ripples. The sky is cloudy and grey, but quite light.A half pint glass full of pale ale, next to a brochure for the 31st Carlisle Beer & Cider Festival.

2/2 Muistanko #muuten ihan väärin, että #SebastianTynkkynen oli aikanaan #helluntailainen, ja se, että hän niistä porukoista lähti, johtui juurikin hellareiden suhtautumisesta homouteen?

Niin miten ihmeessä jäbä vielä senkin jälkeen valitsee puolueekseen #persut - jossa se suhtautuminen homoihin ei eroa hellareiden suhtautumisesta mitenkään?

EDIT: En muistanut ihan väärte:

1/2 Jo se, että #SebastianTynkkynen homoseksuaalina ja maahanmuuttajataustaisen puolison omaavana on #persut jäsen, menee täysin yli hilseen.

Mutta, että #Tynkkynen käyttää vielä poliittisena aseena sitä, että #keskustanuoret ilmaisevat selvästi olevansa seksuaali- ja sukupuolivähemmistöjen oikeuksien puolella.

#Tyne siis on sitä mieltä, että hänen omien oikeuksiensakin ajaminen on huono #arvo.

The source of the mighty Tyne

#Northumberland #Tyne

a weathered white stone pokes out of the deep grass. It's the old marker for the source of the River North Tyne!A muddy stream dribbles out of the grass. This is the River North TyneBy the road, a low short stone wall with two signs on it, both weathered and old - the larger on top says ENGLAND and has s little St George's Cross. Beneath it, a sign says NORTHUMBERLAND with a shield baring the red-and-gold colours of the Northumberland Flag. 

The road curves behind it; in the distance yellow-green moorland slopes and some plantation forestry.

#YleAstudio ta katsoessa ymmärtää enemmän, miksi #Tyne on ikuinen #flanellipaitamies.

Ei tuo perinteisen miesten puvun käyttöetiketti ole tullut tutuksi edes sitä vertaa, että istuessa ne takin napit kandeisi avata.

Mutta huomaa, miten on kovin sama meininki hällä kuin #Mäkelä llä: Pertsamediassa puhutaan asia siistiksi puetuksi, somessa täysi #öyhötys & #provokaatio päällä.
