THERE will be free parking in Bromsgrove town centre car parks for the next two Saturdays after Storm Darragh wreaked havoc on Small Business Saturday when the charges had been lifted.
Bromsgrove District Council had made parking free last Saturday in a bid to encourage more people to visit the town centre and support the independent shops and eateries.
But the district being one of the hardest hit by the heavy rain and high winds led to not as many people heading to the town centre.
So the council has taken the decision to offer free parking at its car parks on the last two Saturdays before Christmas – this and next Saturday (December 14 and 21).
