Cllr Jason Zadrozny, Leader of Ashfield District Council said

“We have been really proud to offer free parking in December for a few years now, and this December we are continuing that tradition. We listened to small businesses and retailers who told us that four hours would be the perfect amount of time, allowing a greater turnover of shoppers.

“We have fantastic businesses and shops here in Ashfield that need everyone’s support this Christmas. Whilst we offer two hours free parking all year round, these additional two hours give everyone more time to browse, shop, eat and drink across Ashfield.”
