Community parking with EV charging and accessible bays
Standhill Road Parking offers a surfaced tarmacadam lot with 50 bays serving the residential area and local convenience stores on Standhill Road. Operating hours are 8 am8 pm MondaySaturday (free Sundays), with a pay-and-display tariff of £0.80 per hour, capped at £5 per day, via machines accepting coins, card, contactless, or via PayByPhone. Two accessible bays (3.6 m wide) are located within 8 m of the raised pedestrian crossing leading to Standhill Road shops, featuring drop-kerb ramps and tactile paving. The surface was resurfaced in late 2023, and bay markings were refreshed in early 2024. LED column lighting on 8 m poles ensures safe illumination after dusk, and two CCTV cameras monitor all entry, exit, and aisle areas. In 2024, a 7 kW EV charging point was installed near the accessible bays, accessible via the Pod Point app. Perimeter shrub planting provides a visual buffer to adjacent housing and aids drainage. Directional signage inside the lot guides drivers to the exit onto Gedling Road. Monthly maintenance includes pay machine servicing, litter clearance, and drainage gully inspections.
