Residents, visitors and businesses can jingle all the way in Folkestone & Hythe this December thanks to free festive parking.
Charges in Folkestone & Hythe District Council car parks and on-street pay and display bays are once again being waived on the three Saturdays leading up to the big day:
- Saturday 7 December
- Saturday 14 December
- Saturday 21 December
Cabinet Member for Transport, Regulatory Services and Building Control – Cllr Polly Blakemore – said: “With Christmas just around the corner, the time is right to announce this year's seasonal free parking.
“We've got a huge range of independent traders and makers across the district, as well as big brands, making it ideal for finding that perfect present and getting your Christmas shopping done.”
Limited waiting (free) and controlled parking zone restrictions are still in place on the days listed above. This is to ensure people are able to park close to their homes and allow for a sufficient turnover of spaces.
Residents can also apply for a permit to park in council-run car parks all year round for £80 and quarterly for £20, allowing you to park your vehicle for three hours in long-term car parks and two hours in short-term car parks.
Terms and conditions apply – visit the council’s website for more information.
