A ROAD running through a new business park in Darlington will be named after a local person.
City and Northern, the developer of Morton Palms business park, is looking for suggestions of people who deserve to be commemorated.
Managing director Elliott Ward said: "We wanted the name of the road to be one of real significance to the life of someone who has achieved something outstanding.
"We have a completely open mind on the type of person who can be nominated. It may be that someone had a family member who is not well-known but they feel should be recognised for their bravery, charity work or achievement.
"Or it may be that someone who had been famous in the area, for example for sport or innovation, receives the accolade."
Nominations must be for people who are deceased. Entrants should explain the reason for their suggestion in no more than 100 words and send it to Name for Morton Palms Spine Road, Recognition, Lingfield House, McMullen Road, Darlington DL1 1RW before July 1.
