To support local Christmas programmes and to enhance trade in the market towns of Mid Devon, 24-hour free parking will be available in the Council’s long-stay car parks in the run up to Christmas.

This year will continue to see the addition of an extra day to make it five Saturdays of free parking leading up to Christmas!

Free parking at St Saviour’s Way (Crediton), Station Road (Cullompton), Multi-Storey (Tiverton) will be available on the following Saturday’s:

• Saturday 23 November (Cullompton & Tiverton light switch-ons)
• Saturday 30 November (Crediton light switch-on)
• Saturday 7 December
• Saturday 14 December
• Saturday 21 December

Normal parking charges apply at the above car parks on all other days of the year.

Councillor James Buczkowski, Cabinet Member for Governance, Finance and Risk, said:

“We’re pleased to offer five free parking Saturdays to support our fantastic local shops again this year.

“This initiative not only benefits our residents but also gives local businesses a boost during a crucial trading period. I’d encourage everyone to take advantage of these free parking Saturdays, visit our wonderful independent shops, and enjoy the holiday atmosphere.”
