City centre car parks

Penalty Charge Notices

From the 7 September 2009, the way in which parking enforcement is delivered in Preston changes. The previous Parkwise arrangement which enforced and administered both on and off street parking is now replaced with separate arrangements for parking enforcement and administration on the public highway (on-street) and on the City Council's car parks (off-street).

If you have received a penalty charge notice whilst parking on one of the City Council's car parks (Bus Station, Market Hall or Hill Street car parks) from 7 September 2009  then please direct any enquiries in the first instance to:

telephone for payment/enquiries 0845 505 2525

or

if you wish to make a payment or challenge via the web please use www.chipsidelancashire.org

The postal address for Chipside is shown on the penalty charge notice and below

Chipside Lancashire
PO Box 3584
Chippenham
