LETTER: Astronomical price of parking puts people off visiting
I moved from Chesterfield to France 22 years ago and, when I have visited several times since to see my family, I have noticed the astronomical price of the parking.
I can see why it puts people off from visiting the town centre.
Parking in the town near me has the perfect method of parking charges to increase footfall.
There is two hours free parking any time of the day. You automatically have free parking between 1200 hours and 1400 hours and finally free parking all day at the weekend and also in the evenings.


Surely this system could be adopted by CBC to increase footfall in the town centre where it is radically needed.
