Stratford-on-Avon District Council's new shoppers car parking tariff for Windsor Street car park starts on Monday 6 December.
The new proposals for Windsor Street allow parking in the evenings from 6pm to 8am for £1 and during the day the tariff will change with over 3 hours up to 6pm for £4.
Cllr Mike Brain, Community Services Portfolio says: "This initiative will help residents, visitors and businesses and shows that as a District Council we are listening to concerns and acting on these as this matter has repeatedly been brought to my attention by various bodies throughout the town. We would like to help encourage as many people as possible to come into our beautiful town this Christmas and experience what it has to offer with many independent traders, a fine selection of bars, cafes and restaurants, the Christmas market and the newly refurbished Royal Shakespeare Theatre. There's something for everyone to enjoy."
There is also free late night off-street parking in all District Council owned car parks, excluding Bridgefoot, between 6pm and 9pm on Thursday evenings from 25 November to 23 December to coincide with the late night shopping in the town.
Since April the District Council have introduced a range of new parking initiatives in Stratford-upon-Avon:
