Free festive parking will return to council-run car parks in Ceredigion in the run-up to Christmas.
Ceredigion County Council has announced that parking in the county-owned pay and display car parks will be free for the last three Saturdays in the run-up to Christmas, namely the 7, 14 and 21 December.
Rhodri Llwyd, Ceredigion council’s corporate lead officer responsible for highways and environmental services, said. “Small businesses will be competing against online businesses for trade this Christmas.
“We want to do what we can to support Ceredigion businesses at this important time of year. We hope this step encourages more of us to shop locally this Christmas and enjoy what fantastic Ceredigion businesses have to offer.”
This decision contributes towards one of the council’s corporate priorities of boosting the economy.
