CLOSURE OF THE CAR PARK FOR REPAIRS
The Car Park - February 4th 2013
Following a lot of activity last week, including calls from friends to Rochford District Council, contacts through the website and emails to FOCOP and RDC action is being taken. A site visit was made towards the end of last week and Councillors were consulted regarding the condition of the surface of the car park.
There’s good news and bad news.
The bad news – the car park will be closed from today. Having seen the state of the road and parking surface in the car park and the damage being caused to the verges a decision was made to close the car park.
The good news – repairs will start as soon as possible and the car park will re-open on March 8th.
In the meantime here are some other parking possibilities.
Google Maps – Postcode SS9 5SN will produce a map of the park.
