APCOA-managed parking at Saxmundham Market Place
Market Place Car Park, managed by APCOA, is a council-owned tarmac surface lot offering approximately 70 marked bays including five disabled spaces located adjacent to the town square. Operating hours are 7 am–9 pm daily; pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless, and RingGo payments; no overnight parking permitted. The tarmac surface is grooved to handle rainfall and inspected quarterly; potholes are repaired within 48 hours. LED bollard lighting ensures visibility for early-morning and evening shoppers, and two CCTV cameras monitor entry, exit, and pedestrian routes. Pedestrian walkways lead directly to Saxmundham Market Square (1 minute walk) and to local retail shops (2 minutes). Two Type 2 EV charging bays are located near the entrance, available via pay-as-you-go. Weekly litter clearance and hedge trimming maintain a tidy town-centre car park.
