A green sign with a diagram showing an exit branching off the road ahead and the following text.
Forward destinations: Newcastle A1; [Airport symbol] [Ferry symbol]; Hexham (A69).
Exit destinations: Whickham; Dunston.
Junction number: 70.
These junctions come thick and fast - one a mile, if not more - which partly explains why the A1 Western Bypass is so unbelievably busy.
