Metrocentre is one of the safest places to park your car. The Centre spends over £1 million a year on car park security and car parks have been awarded the Park Mark certificate which is given by Northumbria Police to car parks which have achieved the standards of the Safer Parking Scheme, aimed at reducing crime and the risk of crime in car parks.
This includes CCTV cameras, police hides on the car park roofs and a team of Security Officers who are on constant patrol.
