Councillors to meet over parking and speed

Liberal Democrat councillors representing Whickham North in Gateshead are to meet Council highway engineers and Northumbria Police Camera Safety Partnership to discuss problems of speeding vehicles on Oakfield Road and Whaggs Lane.

Councillors Chris Ord, Peter Craig and Mary Wallace carried out a survey of residents earlier this year about problems of excess speed on local roads.

“As a result of our survey, highway engineers conducted an actual survey of traffic speeds on the two roads,” said Chris. “We will be discussing these with the police and engineers when we meet them in September.”
