Stainsby Masterplan west Middlesbrough. Picture: Gradon Architecture. LEADERS have promised to listen to worries over a new spine road earmarked to cut through a country park. The new Stainsby vision aims to create an estate with orchards, a community hub, cycle lanes and a visitor centre on 140 hectares east of the A19 in Middlesbrough. But a north-south spine road in the 1,670 home master plan has drawn criticism and fresh concern from campaigners and some councillors. Martyn Walker, from campaign group Greenstuff, told the Local Democracy Reporting Service he had real concerns about the busy road going across land owned by the people of Middlesbrough.
