MOTORISTS can still park for free after 3pm in Crewe town centre under Cheshire East Council’s ‘free after three’ initiative.
There is no charge to park after 3pm on the council-owned Oak Street car park, which has 127 spaces.
The special offer began in mid-September, when a similar offer at the Market Centre car park came to an end. Motorists who park for three hours will save £2.10.
Clr David Topping, Cheshire East’s cabinet member for service commissioning, said: “We took this step to support shops and businesses in the town centre, which have to compete with out of town retail parks where parking is free.
“We hope this offer will give a valuable boost to town centre trade during the all-important pre-Christmas shopping period.”
