Wirral parking charges could be approved next week

New parking charges across Wirral could be rubber stamped next week.

In 2021, Wirral Council agreed to bring in charges for car parks and on-street parking in areas where it is currently free - including parts of New Brighton, West Kirby, Leasowe, Bromborough and many other parts of the borough. As well as this, a £1 per hour standard rate, with a £5 per day maximum charge, was agreed to for all areas in Wirral which already charge.

It is thought the move to introduce charges could raise around £1m annually. A vote on the plans to confirm the locations was deferred in February and is expected to be taken when the local authority’s environment, climate emergency and transport committee meets next Monday.
