A proposal to build a car park next to Pelaw Metro Station has sparked alternative plans from a local Liberal Democrat Councillor.
Metro operator NEXUS are consulting with Gateshead Council about constructing a car park next to Pelaw Metro Station.
Councillor Ian Patterson said, “We support the principle of Park and Ride, but have pointed out that Kirkwood Gardens already suffers from serious congestion problems, which are likely to be worsened by traffic going to and from the car park.
“We have suggested an alternative access route from Shields Road over the Green Lane bridge, which we think could also help to relieve some of the parking and traffic problems in Pelaw.”
