Newcastle City Centre Developments
(04 Nov 2021, 1:26 pm)ne14ne1 If the city has been told it needs to address it’s illegal levels of pollution as quickly as possible, and therefore encourage sustainable travel options, it would be ridiculous to meanwhile continue offer free parking which acts as a magnet drawing cars into the city centre.
Metro offering free parking at their Park & Ride sites is a good move to help regain patronage.
Many people can’t afford cars and Newcastle has a lower than average car ownership. It’s rather unfair free parking has been offered for so long but not free (or at least cheaper) public transport.
