Prices have been slashed in the city’s council car parks. Brighton and Hove City Council has launched a new parking plan which will see several tariff changes introduced in the coming weeks and months. The changes will make it cheaper and simpler to park, the council said.

All off-street, barrier controlled council car parks will have the price for one hour reduced. The changes have been designed to increase use during quieter periods, support the night time economy and encourage drivers to use less busy car parks, the council said. The changes come after a review found that there has been a steady decrease in the use of council car parks since 2021 and that average hourly tariffs were higher than most other cities.
