News Willington Street to be used as FOC overflow car park this Easter

Maidstone Borough Council (MBC) is opening the Willington Street Car Park as an overflow facility across the Easter break.

From tomorrow (Good Friday 29 March), the former Park & Ride site can be used as an additional parking area free of charge for visitors to Mote Park daily between 8am and 8pm for two weeks until Sunday 14 April.

Jennifer Stevens, MBC Head of Environmental Services and Public Realm said:

The Council knows that the Easter break is a popular time for visitors to go to Mote Park and the public car parks in particular, can become very busy.

With that in mind, MBC is opening the Willington Street Car Park area to help people to park their vehicles in a safe environment. This will be a free of charge service to enable visitors to enjoy Mote Park which can be accessed from there.

Mote Park is a Green Flag awarded and is located in the centre of  Maidstone covering over 450 acres including a 30 acre lake. More information about the park can be found on the MBC website:  www.maidstone.gov.uk
