The free tool that keeps you informed about changes—including the cost of parking—in South Tyneside
The Public Notice Portal offers free searches and email alerts for planning applications, road closures, licensing matters, parking changes and other official notices. A search for South Shields Town Hall’s postcode shows 136 notices, including temporary increases to all-day parking fees across South Shields and Whitburn car parks on September 13, the day of the Great North Run. The portal hosts notices submitted by registered local news publishers on behalf of councils, businesses and individuals, helping residents monitor decisions affecting their communities and respond within stated deadlines.
