to bridge a £2.7m gap between its income and spending has forced

charges for six years. |

Blue Badge holders
|
Blue badge
holders to get double time in car parks - Blue badge holders
will get twice as long for their car parking as other motorists
from April when disabled people will be asked to help play their
part in bridging Suffolk Coastal’s £2.7 million budget
gap. |
Suffolk Coastal currently allows 2 hours free parking in
all its car parks (in any parking bay, not just the specially
designated disabled parking bays) when a valid
Blue Badge is
displayed.
Motorcycle parking
Some of Suffolk Coastal's car parks have parking bays allocated
for use by motorcycles only. Charges are waived if these bays are
used for motorcycle parking. Charges do apply, however, if any
other parking space within a pay and display car park is used.
