Annual Parking Permit

Putting the price up this much is really stupid. It just increases the number of people walking onto the footpaths from various grass verges and adds to the congestion in small village centres or laybys near the car parks. Self defeating on all fronts.

I’d like to give you 0 stars but I can’t.
Like other posters here I went to renew my parking pass that was £40 only to find it’s now £78. What half wit thought that was a reasonable price increase?
Obviously there is no desire to stop people parking on verges and near to car parks and encourage the use of provided parking, it’s not as if there has been any issues with inconsiderate parking blocking roads is there? Oh well I shall pay nothing and park on verges like everyone else.

Annual Parking Permit

I was about to renew this pass, but it has nearly doubled in price from £40 to £78, so I’m no longer purchasing one. Meanwhile, last Saturday I used my existing card in a nearly empty car park, whilst the nearby verges full of cars and the enviable camper vans.

As with previous reviewer I have just been to purchase a permit having checked it out online at the weekend. Its effectively doubled in price in a few days so not bothering now - completely bonkers and a bit of an own goal/ self defeating objective I would suggest. I would have thought it was worth incentivising people to use the car parks, not clog up the villages and surrounds. Heyho!
