Residents up in arms over ‘parking madness’

RESIDENTS who live near a Newcastle school say new parking permit proposals will do nothing to stop “inconsiderate” parking during the school run.

Some sections of Newton Road in High Heaton are permit parking only, but the end near the Corner House Pub, has fewer parking restrictions.

Residents say that this has led to parking on dropped kerbs and blocking access to driveways, and resident Jane Cross says that the issue has been going on for years.
