The sponsorship scheme provides a cost-effective way for local and national businesses to promote their business and raise their profile. 

About the scheme

Northumberland has an extensive highway network stretching from Durham to the Scottish borders and from the east coast across to Cumbria. Roundabouts are a key feature in towns and villages across the county. When compared to other types of media outlets, sponsorship tends to be one of the most competitive.   

Benefits: 

  • You will have your name displayed in a highly visible location all year round. 
  • You will have a rare opportunity to engage with people while they’re on the move and a chance to show support for the local authority while maintaining exclusive space free from your direct competitors. 
  • Roundabout signs provide a company with uninterrupted coverage of your business and are safely and strategically sighted to achieve maximum exposure. 
  • If you are located in a remote location, a roundabout sign can prove invaluable as a means of attracting new customers. 
  • All the income raised from the sponsorship of roundabouts is reinvested into the highways network. 
  • Northumberland County Council does not currently offer any other type of sponsorship facility.
