Commercial Vehicle Event Tariff (Clennon
Valley car park)
Length of stay:

£100.00
Reasons for the decision:
In order to support the demand for parking, Torbay Council will adopt the
same pre-book method used in previous years’ running of this
event for five car parks across Paignton. The increase in charges is required due to
additional operational costs attributed to the parking places
during the course of the
event.
Alternative options considered:
Not to
operate the pre-book parking method, which would lead to event
attendees not knowing if there would be capacity for them to park
at each of the locations prior to visiting each car
park.
Implementation:
Pre-booked parking is
available via the Air Show website, access to each car park on the
two event dates will only be permitted to customers who have
reserved a parking space in advance.
Information:
Increase to parking charges in five car parks for the duration
of the English Riviera Air Show event
