FREE PARKING!! To support Boston businesses and shoppers in the lead up to Christmas
In a bid to make this holiday season even more joyful, Boston Borough Council is unwrapping a special gift for its residents and visitors - FREE PARKING! Starting from 4pm on Thursday 23rd November, until 4pm on Sunday 26th November, and continuing four Saturdays in December 2023 (2nd, 9th, 16th, and 23rd), all council-owned off-street car parks will offer complimentary parking.
This initiative aims to alleviate the stress of holiday shopping, encouraging everyone to explore the festive offerings in the heart of the town. Whether you're scouting for the perfect gift, enjoying local events, or savouring the seasonal delicacies, worry-free parking is here to enhance your holiday experience.
Cllr Sandeep Ghosh, Portfolio Holder for Finance at Boston Borough Council, expressed excitement about fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere. "We want to make it as convenient as possible for people to come together and celebrate the joy of the season. Free parking is our way of giving back to the community and enhancing the festive spirit in Boston."
This gesture aligns with the Councils commitment to supporting local businesses and fostering a sense of community during the holiday season. So mark your calendars, plan your festivities, and embrace the spirit of Christmas in Boston - where the joy of the season comes with the added gift of hassle-free parking!
The Boston Borough Council car parks where parking will be free are:
- Bargate Green
- Custom House Quay
- Cattle Market
- Botolph Street
- Doughty Quay
- West End
- St George's Road
- Artillery Row
- Maud Street
- Buoy Yard
- Victoria Place
- Staniland
- George Street
- Spayne Road
- Tunnard Street
On-street Parking charges will remain at Pump Square, Market Place, South Square, Station Approach and Wide Bargate.
Enforcement for non-payment of advertised fees will be suspended for the periods prescribed in this decision but all other parking contraventions, eg not parking within a designated bay, will continue to be enforced in accordance with the Council's Parking Order.
For the avoidance of doubt, no ticket will need to be obtained from any 'off street' parking machine in the Council's off street car parks to qualify for 'free parking' during the prescribed periods.
No refunds of any tickets purchased during the prescribed periods, or App payments made will be eligible nor will there be any partial refund of any season ticket or other payments.
