With such a low take-up of parking permits, we’re not sure whether this news will have much effect on those wanting to use this car park. This in from the council. Ed
The IW Council will cease to operate Park Road Car Park adjacent to Northwood Park from Saturday 13 November 2010.
The council has been operating this long-stay park on behalf of the Trustees of Northwood House and therefore council-issued parking permits have been valid.
Trustees found new partners
The trustees have, as is their right, now found other partners to run the car park on their behalf.
As a result, IW Council permits will not be accepted at Park Road Car Park from 13 November. The council has alternative long stay parks at Brunswick and Mornington road at which permits can be used and they are also valid for the park and ride car park at Somerton.
All long stay permits holders have all been written to by the council in order to explain the changes. A refund for any unused months is being offered to motorists wishing to surrender their permit.
Permit holders requiring further information should contact Parking Services on 01983 823714 or e-mail [email protected].
