Free Saturday parking on the run up to Christmas

This will apply on the 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th of December.

Parking in Hinckley is going to be free in selected town centre car parks on Saturdays in the run-up to Christmas.

Shoppers will be able to park for free in Lower Bond Street, Trinity West and Castle car parks (after 9 am) on the four Saturdays before Christmas.

The council have made this decision in the hope that it will increase trade for shops and businesses in the town.

This applies on the 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th of December.

The North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire (NWSL) car park which is directly behind the Atkins Building and can be accessed from Druid Street, will also be free for shoppers.

Council Leader, Councillor Stuart Bray said: "We fully appreciate the financial challenges this Christmas everyone is facing but hope that this free parking offer will urge residents to support their local high street, market and hospitality venues if they can. My thanks also to NWSL for opening their car park to shoppers."
