Planning your journey to hospital in advance is important. Please allow sufficient time for the journey and potential additional traffic near the hospitals to make sure you can arrive in the department at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment time.
Major works on the Tyne Bridge
A four-year restoration programme of the Tyne Bridge will get underway from April 2024 which will have a significant impact on the travelling public across the region. People are advised to plan ahead, follow the travel advice and make the switch to public transport whenever possible as this huge refurbishment gets underway.

We have limited space in our hospital car parks and they can become full very quickly.
If you are able to consider alternative travel arrangements this helps to make sure spaces are available for those most in need.
