Newcastle Traffic CCTV Are Cameras Watching You!

Newcastle upon Tyne has become another major UK city to introduce Traffic CCTV cameras.

These cameras monitor vehicle movement, parking and any parking offences. They are a part of a feasability study into the possible introduction of a Congestion Charge and a "Pay per Mile" policy.

The network of twenty nine cameras are being installed by Barrier Surveillance and they relay live video feeds via a radio link to Newcastle's Civic Centre where the councils parking control department monitor and record the video.

The installation of these cameras is ongoing. We have some their locations and logged their GPS positions so you can add them to your in-car SatNav.
