From Friday 15th July 2016 visitors and residents in Shoreham-by-Sea will now have a new 135 bay parking space when visiting this popular seaside town.

Shoreham-by-Sea is one of our smallest but most popular towns on the coast (as featured in Evening Standard Magazine Friday 8th July 2016). It provides a popular shopping and dining destination for residents and visitors alike but as urgently result requires more parking spaces as its popularity grows.

Adur District Council has taken the step to make a former 135 bay Council staff car park available to the public at its former Civic Centre, in Ham Road (see: map of Adur Civic Centre or aerial photo of Adur Civic Centre and car park).

The Ham Road Car Park will operate as pay and display on an hourly / daily basis, with the further opportunity to purchase season tickets. Prices start from just 25p. Full list below.

Councillor Neil Parkin, Leader of Adur District Council, adds:

“Shoreham is a very popular town, with a wide range of bespoke and independent shops, a vibrant arts scene and popular weekly markets. It is also enjoys many charming but narrow streets and parking has become an issue. The new Ham Road Car Park will further improve on road parking and offer residents and visitors alike a more pleasant experience when visiting the town.”
