Park for just £1 in Ormskirk this Christmas

  • Two hours extra parking for drivers
  • Shop local and support our independent retailers
  • Deal starts on Dec 1

 

If you’re planning on a Christmas shopping spree or meeting with friends for a festive meal in Ormskirk in the run up to Christmas, you can now park for up to five hours for just £1.

From Thursday 1 December up to and including Saturday 24 December, drivers who pay for parking in Borough Council car parks in Ormskirk town centre will receive an additional two hours free parking.

This means you can pay just £1 to park for up to five hours instead of three.

West Lancashire Borough Councillor Anne Fennell, whose Cabinet responsibilities include parking, said:

"With our great parking offer you can spend even more time in town for minimal cost and we encourage you to support our businesses too by keeping your money local.

"We have an eclectic mix of fantastic independent retailers in Ormskirk and when you're done shopping you can even enjoy an evening in one of the many food and drink venues Ormskirk has to offer."


Motorists should check car park signage to make sure it is Council-controlled and display the valid ticket they have paid for. Notices explaining the offer will be displayed on the tariff boards adjacent to the pay and display machines.

The two extra free hours will not be shown on the ticket. Council Civil Parking Enforcement Officers are aware of the offer and will allow for the extra two hours.

Parking is free of charge on Council-controlled car parks in Ormskirk town centre on Sundays and Bank Holidays throughout the year.

(Offer does not include Derby Street car park adjacent to the Council's offices or the Bus station car park which is currently being redeveloped as part of the Ormskirk Eastern Gateway Project).
