In two weeks (Weds 05 October) charges will be changing in our pay and display car parks. Signs are now appearing in each car park to give advance notice. Here’s a quick guide of what you need to know:

🔍 Which car parks are affected?

👉 Johns Court, Blaby
👉 Enderby Road, Blaby
👉 Weavers Court, Narborough
👉 Leicester Road, Narborough
👉 Narborough Station Car Park

🔍 What changes are there to the machines?

One machine in Johns Court, Enderby Road and Weavers Court car parks will become card only.

This is following the trend of the move to cashless payments, whilst also recognising people still want to pay by cash. This method will help to reduce the running costs of the car parks.

The machine in Narborough Station will become card only. Less than 1% of transactions on this machine are made by cash.

ℹ️ Ways to pay

Except for Narborough Station, cash will still be accepted at specific machines in each car park. You can pay by contactless or chip and pin at all of our machines.

Payment can also be made by PayByPhone using their online app or dedicated phone line to pay.
