Ongoing parking problems in a busy residential area are getting worse, according to a concerned resident who fears "it's only a matter of time before somebody is injured".
Robert Austin, Liberal Democrat for the Kenton Focus Team, said urgent action is needed from Newcastle City Council to solve the continuous issue of parking in North Kenton, particularly in the streets surrounding the local retail park and Kenton Centre.
Robert said: "Some people are avoiding the area altogether and going elsewhere because it's so bad. One person said they nearly hit another car because there were cars parked up on both sides of the residential area and he was going down the road as another car was coming up.
