THE Council has announced the free parking details for Tralee during the Christmas period.

In a change from the norm, parking will be free all day in Council-owned car parks in the town from November 29 to January 2. In previous years, parking was only free from 1pm in the carparks.

However, there are ‘terms and conditions’ to note. Parking stays are subject to maximum stay of four hours in all car parks, except in Garvey’s car park (2 hours); St John’s/Abbey (2 hours); Tesco town centre (2 hours) and Parklands (2 hours). This is to ensure traffic flow.

Shop owners and staff are encouraged by the Council to use the car parks to free up spaces on-street for their customers. Parking charges for on-street parking remain unchanged.

Traffic wardens will continue to monitor and enforce illegal parking during this period.
