Biddick Hall Roundabout is a roundabout on the A182 and A183 west of Sunderland and south of Washington new town.
It was built in the mid-2000s as the northern terminus of the proposed Central Route, a new-build bypass for the A182 which was planned to run through the former Lambton Cokeworks site to reach the B1284 near Rainton Bridge and hence the A690. The scheme was shelved in 2011, with only the section between Biddick Hall and Wapping Bridge on the A183 having been completed. Upon opening, the A183 was moved onto the new construction, multiplexing with the A182 between Biddick Hall and Shiney Row where it rejoined its old route.
