THANCKES CAR PARK - Update from Cornwall Councillor R Parsonage

From your Cornwall Councillor – Rob Parsonage

 

“We fought to stop the introduction of parking charges at Thanckes Car Park and while the public consultation was against such introduction, The Council Administration decided that Cornwall Council would introduce such charging.  

 

The Council has stated that where annual permits are available, these will be set up ready for purchase via Cornwall Council’s website prior to the charges starting. They are intending to put advance notification in the car parks with these dates on.

 

Thanckes Park, Torpoint – machine installation 26 June charging to start 6 July

 

I will continue to fight for longer-term free permits for Friends of Thanckes Park who undertake so much vital work in the area, and other volunteer organisations, and for the teachers and students at Torpoint junior school/college.

 

The first 1hour is free, however, motorists must obtain a ticket for this from the machine as this will show arrival time. This is explained on the tariff board.

 

Please do contact me should you need any additional information about any of these sites. Cllr.rob.parsonage@cornwall.gov.uk or on 07763725516.”
