Free on-street parking has been doubled to one hour

Redbridge Council has doubled the amount of time drivers can park for free on the borough’s high streets from 30 minutes to one hour.

“This will be a real boost for our high streets and help revitalise the local economy whilst making sure there is still a good level of turnover in parking bays – giving as many people as possible the opportunity to use parking spaces to pop to the shops,” said Councillor Jas Athwal.

Motorists can activate the free on-street parking via the Ringo app or at an upgraded pay and display machine.
