Parking Charges!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Juliand:
Example - Hengistbury Head ( South Coast Nature Reserve / SSSI - Beach huts on the Mudeford part of it sell at over £250k!) The car park charges - last year was £4.00 for up to 4 hours - A pound an hour, ok I suppose.......This summer, up to £5.00 for  4 hours - I make that a 25% increase.

That car park will be patrolled, so no chance there, but how can that hike in price be justified? Nice place to spend a few hours, and car park often well used, but seems that the Council are taking the Micky! :thinking:

Noooo - that's sheer exploitation. Makes Hengistbury look a bargain

Craig Stanley:
I spend a fortune round Bournemouth for parking. I think if your a resident it should at least be subsidised. Parked in the BIC(Bournemouth International Centre) last week from 12pm until 4ish and it cost me £7. Rip off. Still not as bad as Brighton:lol:

If you ignore any parking penalties often not worth it. Private firm issued notice, sister in law ignored it like many do. Heard nothing 12mths later, recent mortgage application declined due to CCJ by the private firm.

Brighton is a rip off, annoying the misses just informed me she wants to go there for the day with the little one. Either gonna be a min walk to town centre @ £9 for 6hours or park in Churchill Centre car park for £12 for 6hours.

Feel your pain @MC71 , I got stung in the NCP before as it used to be cheaper after a certain time for shows in the Brighton Centre but they stopped doing it and got stung over £20. Never again, I hate NCP's with a passion in big cities as they are a rip off
