Mid Sussex District Council is providing the discounted parking to support shoppers and traders.

The £1 parking offer will be available all day on Saturdays in long stay car parks owned by the district council.

Councillor Gary Marsh, cabinet member for service delivery, said: “This is the most important time of the year for local retailers and we’re showing them our support by offering town centre parking all weekend for just £1 in the run up to Christmas.

“You can join us and show your support for the local economy this Christmas by shopping in your local town. Popping into town is quick and convenient way to pick up gifts for friends or family and with the great range of shops we have in Mid Sussex, there’s no reason to go anywhere else.

“I hope our parking offer encourages even more people to shop locally and attracts shoppers from other areas to spend their money in Mid Sussex.

“Don’t forget, our parking is free after 6pm every night of the week so Mid Sussex is a great place to enjoy an evening meal or meet up with friends during the festive season.”

The parking discounts will be available this Saturday (December 1), Saturday, December 8, Saturday, December 15, and Saturday, December 22.

The discount will be at the following car parks:

Queens Crescent car park – Burgess Hill

Station Road car park – Burgess Hill

Norton House car park – East Grinstead

Franklynn Road car park – Haywards Heath

Muster Green car park – Haywards Heath

A spokesman for the district council added: “Parking in Mid Sussex is completely free on Sundays, so that’s a whole weekend of shopping for less than the price of a loaf of bread.”
