News for drivers! You can park for free this Saturday, April 20th in all public car parks owned by Rutland County Council in Oakham. This includes the Kilburn Road Car Park.
Here are some things to keep in mind:
This free parking offer only applies to council-owned car parks.
Be sure to follow all posted parking restrictions. Civil Enforcement Officers will be on patrol as usual, they will have more time to monitor on street parking, because they won't need to check the car parks.
Its hard to believe that 18 years ago Oakham driver only had a few white zigs to stay clear of then everything became so dangerous double yellow lines appeared everywhere and various other money making parking restrictions.
Rutland County Council say, If you've pre-paid for parking, unfortunately there won't be any refunds.
This free parking initiative is paid for by Oakham Town Council.
