Gateshead Council will be making imminent changes to the road layout on Lampton Street, which will directly impact our shoppers and visitors who use the Tesco Trinity Square car park.
Traffic will now be able to access the car park via the A184, which has previously been cordoned off.
Traffic will also no longer be able to turn right out of the car park to access the A167 and the Tyne Bridge. This traffic will now have to exit left to the A184 to Bensham roundabout, then turn left past the Civic Centre, joining the A167 central motorway from the Park Lane roundabout.
We understand that these changes will be in place by Monday, 30th June 2025, and we appreciate that they will impact many of our shoppers, visitors, and staff. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause for those travelling north of the river, but the changes are beyond our control.
The road layout changes will be on a trial basis initially with plans to make them permanent subject to the trial.
