Lancaster City Council plans to amend the City of Lancaster (Off-Street Parking Places) (Consolidation) Order 2023.

Subject to the approval of Lancashire County Council and the Chief Officer of Police, this will introduce a maximum uncharged period of seven hours for valid Blue Badge holders in all car parks that permit Blue Badge holder parking, after which the standard charges will apply within the same 24-hour period.

The cardboard time clock will be required to be displayed alongside the Blue Badge.

Bulk Street car park in Lancaster will designate all parking bays as Blue Badge bays only.

In addition, changes will be made to Coastal Road car park in Morecambe, to provide two marked campervan bays permitting the sleeping within the vehicle but prohibiting camping or setting out, to introduce a 48-hour maximum stay (no return within 24 hours) restriction for campervans, with amendments to the order to make various changes to the scale of charges and hours of day and evening charges.

The 24-hour Rover RingGo session permit will be amended to £14.50.

Nelson Street car park is to be removed from the order, while permit parking authorisation will be removed from the Auction Mart car park.
