To help shoppers return to high streets across Dorset for their Christmas shopping, Dorset Council is offering three days of free parking this December.

Town centre car parks across the Dorset Council area will be free on Saturdays on December 5, 12 and 19.

This includes East Street short stay and long stay, Football Club, Hope Terrace, Plottingham, Rope Walks, South Street, West Street and Wykes Court.

Cllr Ray Bryan, portfolio holder for highways, travel and environment, said: "In response to this year's exceptional circumstances, to help residents to shop locally and to help boost Dorset's economy, we're pleased to offer three days of free parking in towns across the council area.

"With most events cancelled this year, we are pleased to be able to offer town councils additional free parking during valuable prime, retail weekends this December."

On-street parking charges, and private car park charges, will still apply. Drivers are encouraged to check signage on machines at each car park to avoid paying unnecessarily.
