Free parking at Forge Island reduced

A CUT to free parking on Forge Island will come into force next week.

The Advertiser revealed earlier this month that the free parking period in the “red zone” of the former Tesco car park was being reduced from three hours to two.

That change will take effect on Monday, with two hours free on weekdays and all day free at weekends.

The move was designed to allow more space for shoppers and prevent spaces being taken up by visitors making longer visits, Rotherham Borough Council said.
