Street Parking

This section is designed to help you avoid receiving a Penalty Charge Notice. Use this information in conjunction with the Highway Code.

These pages also tell Blue Badge holders what they are allowed to do in each type of parking place.

Our Parking Enforcement Policy is fair and consistent across Gateshead, and our aim is to minimise the number of Penalty Charge Notices issued by providing advice and information regarding such subjects as Residents' Parking, Pay & Display Parking, and so on.

A full list of subjects is given below; just click on the subject to read the information. If you can't find the information you are looking for, call us on 0191 433 3110 or e-mail parkingandregulation@gateshead.gov.uk| and we will be happy to help.
