Car Park (Fishing Only) is a specialized lot located off Riverside Road in Ipswich, dedicated exclusively to anglers accessing the River Orwell. The facility provides 30 sealed gravel bays, including two accessible spaces adjacent to the designated fishing platform. Parking is free of charge but restricted to rod license holders only; enforcement is conducted by Suffolk Wildlife Trust wardens. Solar-powered LED bollard lighting lines pedestrian routes from dusk until 8 pm, ensuring safe egress for evening anglers. No CCTV is installed due to the specialized nature of the lot and low traffic volumes. Covered signage at the entrance displays local fishing regulations, river safety guidelines, and tide time information. Monthly maintenance includes gravel replenishment, litter clearance, and seasonal vegetation trimming to maintain clear sightlines to the riverbank. Pedestrian footpaths lead directly to the fishing jetties within a one-minute walk.
