WORK has started to identify streets and roads in the borough where £2.5m will be spent on repairs.
Earlier this year, Darlington Borough Council released money to improve minor problems on roads and pavements.
A residents' survey asked people to name places that needed improvement. A total of 2,939 problems were identified in 1,428 locations.
Most of the concerns were about uneven pavements and roads with cracked pavements or flooding.
Officials are now looking at areas that received three or more complaints - accounting for 73 per cent of the places identified - before work starts in early January.
Information about which areas have been chosen will be put in the council's monthly Town Crier magazine and on the council's website at www.darlington.gov.uk
