SWANLEY: Free Saturday parking in run up to Christmas


PARKING in Swanley will be free on the two Saturdays in the run up to Christmas.

Sevenoaks District Council is making all of its car parks and all on-street parking free on December 12 and 19.

The council’s portfolio holder for built environment, Councillor Gary Williamson, said: “We know from our discussions with traders from across the district, this Christmas could potentially be a difficult time.

“In light of these exceptional economic circumstances, we are making parking free to support our local businesses and to help them have a successful Christmas.”

Ticket machines in all the affected areas will be closed off on the days in question and people will not need to get a ticket.
