Traffic en route to the hugely popular Northumberland County Show, 2012. Corbridge Bridge was closed to northbound traffic to allow continuous working for show-bound traffic. This is the last occasion on which the Show will be held in Tynedale Park, Corbridge. In future years, the show will be held at Bywell. At least at Corbridge, there is the alternative of public transport by bus or train. At Bywell, there is no such provision, and the pressure on car access is likely to be even more severe.
