A teenager is due to appear at court today following an alleged hit and run incident in Redcar at the weekend.

In the early hours of Saturday officers from the Matrix Team identified and located a man who they wanted to speak to in connection with an alleged hit and run incident outside a club in Redcar.

A vehicle was seized in Liverton Mines as part of ongoing enquiries.

A 19-year-old man was arrested and interviewed, and in the early hours of yesterday he was charged with attempted GBH, dangerous driving, driving with out a licence, driving without insurance, and failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

He was remanded in custody and is due to appear at Teesside Magistrates' Court today.

 

The viewing platform of the Redcar Beacon has reopened to the public.

The platform was closed nearly two years ago due to safety concerns and further measures have been introduced following a review of options by the Council.

CCTV cameras will now cover the platform and new warning signs are in place to make visitors aware of the danger of scaling the barriers on the platform.

Security staff will continue to be deployed on the platform during the school holidays.

Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council have thanked the public for their patience while the safety review was completed.

 

Essential restoration work on the paths leading up Roseberry Topping begins today.

Over the next five years, the National Trust and North York Moors National Park are hoping to deliver a programme of extensive path restoration work for ten paths at the local landmark - a mix of permissive routes and public rights of way.

The aim of the work is to ensure that Roseberry Topping remains a safe and welcoming location for people to experience the beauty of the North York Moors and reconnect with nature and the environment.

Preparation work starts on the first footpath today, which will mean there will be diversions in place for everyone’s safety.

The cooperation of visitors to the area to stick to the designated routes during their walk is appreciated.

Work on the first path is likely to take four to six months to complete.
