Tyneside Clean Air Zone — what it means for your delivery
Gateshead sits just outside the Tyneside Clean Air Zone, in force since January 2023. The zone covers most of Newcastle city centre and the routes over the Tyne, Swing, High Level and Redheugh bridges, applies to vans and HGVs (private cars are not charged). For Gateshead jobs that run into it, a daily charge applies to non-compliant vehicles.
Meeting the zone's Euro 6 diesel / Euro 4 petrol vans, Euro VI HGVs standard, and whether any zone charge applies to your specific booking, is something we confirm when we quote — so routes that cross the boundary are priced accurately from the start rather than adjusted after the fact.
What this means for Gateshead customers: zone requirements are checked and priced at quote time, not left as a surprise. Whether a charge applies and which vehicle is allocated both get confirmed before you book, and routing follows the most direct sensible path.
