New Car Park For Crawley Town Centre

A new weekend and Bank Holiday car park for shoppers at Crawley is set to open.

Seventy spaces at West Sussex County Council’s Centenary House office complex will be available.

The car park will be in use for the first time from tomorrow (Saturday January 23).

Henry Smith, Leader of West Sussex County Council, who represents the town’s Maidenbower division, has welcomed the move.

He said: “I have been pressing for these additional spaces to be made available, and delighted this is now being introduced.

“I am sure they will be welcomed by shoppers and visitors to the centre of town. In these times of recession it is particularly important to support the local retail economy.

“We are also arranging for signs to be put up to advise people that this new parking facility is open.

“We have been working closely with Crawley Borough Council, which will manage the car park at the same town centre charges as other car parks.”
