Cheshire East Council Updates: Car parking changes

 

New changes at car parks in Cheshire East will go live from Monday 2 December 2024.

Please take note of the following changes:

  • Parking charges will come into effect at most council-owned car parks where parking is currently free. Details of the charges can be found on the car park charges page on Cheshire East website.
  • Most car parks will become ‘cash-free’, meaning payment will be by debit or credit card at pay and display machines, or via the RingGo app. However, at least one car park in every town in Cheshire East will continue to accept cash payments.

In addition, Cheshire East residents off-street parking permit scheme has been extended to cover more areas.

The scheme allows residents who don’t have access to off-street parking to apply for a 12-month permit for specific car parks, at a significantly reduced cost.

The changes are necessary to ensure all our towns are treated in a fair and equal way, and to reduce some of the financial burden facing the council.
