Parking Charges

Car Parks

Parking charges are on display in our car parks on a tariff board in each location.

Parking charges are also listed, along with the car park location, opening hours, and any restrictions in place, on each car park webpage - these pages are linked at the bottom of this page.
 

West Berkshire Council do not currently use QR codes as short cuts for payment of your parking. If you see a QR code in relation to paying for parking, please report it to 01635 521905.

Please be advised that West Berkshire Council would not send a text message regarding outstanding Penalty Charge Notices.  Should you receive a text regarding this, be aware that it is a scam and delete/block the number.
