Car parks

Most car parks in Coventry are run by the Council. We look after the day-to-day running of the car parks, making sure people can find a parking space and that the equipment is working at all times. The safety of the people who use the car parks is important and we are improving the security to reach the high standards of the Safer Parking Scheme.
