Gosforth High Street could be first in region with red lines
A Newcastle street could be the first in the region to be painted with double red lines, if controversial plans get the go-ahead later.
The City Council wants to introduce the red lines to Gosforth High Street as part of a plan that includes a re-design of a bottleneck junction.
Planners say congestion will be eased, but campaigners are angry that lost parking spaces could discourage people from visiting the area.
