Paid parking could soon be re-introduced in Newcastle's East End on Saturday mornings to free up space on streets clogged with the cars of inner-city workers.
Council will tonight consider a 3 month trial from October which would force motorists to pay for parking between 9am and midday.
To encourage a more affordable option for inner-city workers, Council will also consider making it's King Street car park free to use for the first month of the trial before a 5-dollar fee is brought in for the following two months.
