By Pass Car Park

I have a permit and I work next to Waitrose. I have Fibromyalgia so cannot park a distance from work. However, there are only around 25 long stay permit spaces- along the back but not even extending to the end of the back row. I travel 15 miles to work and today I arrived at 8:30am to find ALL the permit bays already filled. I've only just paid for a permit and the council take your money quick enough on application but do not provide the spaces to park in. Who is considering the workers in Christchurch? Times are hard enough for businesses without councils taking £800 a year for a permit and then not supply the equivalent number of permit spaces. As I have medical need to park there I think it's unjust and downright greedy for councils to take my money and then only offer 20odd spaces in the only really accessible car park for me at work. Don't they want businesses in Xchurch to flourish? Something needs to be done. ALL Xchurch car parks should allow long stay permit vehicles for workers to park there. There should be a workers permit that has rights to park in the centre of Christchurch. They have a shoppers permit - but not a specific workers permit that should allow any car park use. Ridiculous. No point giving shoppers permits when workers have changed jobs and leave Xchurch because they can't afford £800 a year plus £10 a day on top when there aren't enough 'designated' long stay bays. Such an Appalling treatment of working people.

once again I was only offered a choice of 15 Minutes or 4 hours time limits to park on your App when I only actually only wanted 2 hours parking. so once again ended up paying for the 4 hours. why can I not put in 2 hours.

need to be able to park for longer.

Waitrose will refund the parking on checkout but not the Just Park fee. It does mean two hours only costs £0.70 so long as you shop in Waitrose.

Easy access to the town centre

Why am I getting charged .40p to book ???

Really handy for Travelodge and lots of available spaces

Ridiculous price for a very short visit to Waitrose. RIP off Britain continues to outdo itself.

Not clear for Waitrose parking lot what to do. Seems like there to catch you out. Pay your park at grocery store? Come on.

A Waitrose car par park that charges it's customers a minimum of £3.70 -This really sucks!
