Gateshead has several major roads passing through it, including the A184 connecting the town to Sunderland and the A1 connecting to Edinburgh and London. The Millennium Bridge, a cyclist and pedestrian tilt bridge between Gateshead arts quarter and Newcastle's Quayside, is powered by enough electric motors to run more than eight Ford Focus cars. A clean air zone was introduced in the town in early 2023, so some vehicles have to pay to drive through the area.
A Clean Air Zone (CAZ) operates in Gateshead to improve air quality and specifically reduce public exposure to nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant produced by traditional combustion engines. This goal is achieved by encouraging the use of cleaner vehicles, such as EVs, and restricting high-pollution vehicles. Many CAZs charge drivers for entering them, though some are non-charging. Before driving in Gateshead, it's worth checking online whether you will have to pay for driving through the zone.
Power steering is designed to reduce the effort required by the driver to turn the steering wheel. Without this system, the steering in your car would be extremely heavy, making it challenging to do low-speed manoeuvres.
Common problems requiring a power steering repair include low or leaking power steering fluid, loose or broken belts, worn hoses and a damaged pump. You should contact a power steering specialist if you notice any of the following symptoms:
- Stiff steering
- A squealing or whining noise
- Vibrations felt through the steering wheel
- Low or discoloured power steering fluid
