Northumberland County Council and Bamburgh Parish Council have been concerned about the issue for some time.

A ‘no waiting at any time’ parking restriction is proposed along virtually the whole length of the western side of the road.
Cllr Guy Renner-Thompson, county councillor for Bamburgh division, said: "This has been raised with the county council by myself and Bamburgh Parish Council for some time.
"Following a meeting with Northumberland County Council, the parish council and the National Association for Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty this is the proposal.
"Better signage would also be included to direct people towards the Links car park as an alternative access to the beach.”
