Workers, visitors and shoppers in Norwich are having to pay more for parking after the city council raised its tariffs after a five-years price freeze.

The changes to multi-storey charges are:

  • St Andrews, going from between £1.80 and £6 to between £2 and £10.
  • Rose Lane, going from between £1.80 and £6 to between £2 and £7.50.
  • St Giles, only changing from £8.50 to £10 for up to four hours.

Pay and display charges (Barn Road, Chantry, Chapelfield East, Colegate, Magdalen Street, Monastery Court, Pottergate, Queens Road, Rouen Road, St Crispins and Westwick Street) are changing from between £1.30 and £15 to between £2.20 and £20.

All evening charges are going from £2.20 to £3.

The hike in prices went up at the end of last month and the move will impact a total of 3,080 parking bays across Norwich.

The council said the change would provide a "more consistent approach" to charges.
