This sign indicates the route to the Coast Road Cycle Path along the course of the former Killingworth Waggonway which dates back to the early part of the 19th century. As such, it forms part of the North Tyneside Waggonways Network. This historic network of waggonways had fallen into disrepair over many years but in 2000 North Tyneside Council successfully bid for over £2 million worth of Government funding to transform more than 30 miles of these waggonways into recreational routes for walkers and cyclists.
