Are there any members who either live in or are visiting Falmouth who could pm me for my telephone number and send me a photo of the signs in Falmouth Maritime Car Park, especially where it says about Blue Badge Holders. Many thanks

I have and somebody suggested a thread that contained photos but I couldnt find it, so logically I thought that they may be an NSC member either living near there or down there visiting who could help me.

I have also added a post to the MSE one highlighted above.

You can get quite close to one of the signs on Google Maps (not the main entrance one, you need to go to the back corner of the car park).

Thank you for your post but that ius not relevant as :

1. Not sure it is a council car park
2. The sign said Blue Badge holders must pay but are permitted a further 1 hour free after the expiry time. I saw that in a number of car parks in Cornwall.

This is a list of council car parks in Falmouth. Maritime car park isn't listed.

Sigh ….. private parking rules aren't law and therefore 'breaking' them isn't a crime. Actually, breaking council parking rules isn't a crime either.
