Coach Parking Barrack Rd, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 4ST
Dedicated coach bays opposite Newcastle Castle
Situated on Barrack Road, opposite Newcastle Castle, this coach-only parking area accommodates up to twelve full-size coaches on a reinforced concrete surface. Bays are demarcated with yellow thermoplastic lines, each measuring 4 m × 12 m to accommodate double-deck or articulated vehicles. Operating hours are 6 am to 10 pm; after 10 pm, occasional coach drop-offs are permitted with prior booking. The site features dedicated pedestrian refuges, bollard-protected walkways leading to the Castle and nearby attractions, and one accessible mini-coach bay for wheelchair-accessible vehicles. Security is provided by 24-hour CCTV with PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras and regular overnight patrols by licensed attendants. Payment is handled via pre-booking at £15 per stay, or £20 for same-day walk-in (card only at keypad terminal). Directional signage points coaches to the drop-off zone near the Castle Gate entrance and advises alternate parking for daytime long-stay on Westgate Road. The surface was sealed in late 2024, and traffic cones are used to reserve coach spaces during peak festival periods.
