Waterfront parking with accessible bays, pay-and-display, and direct access to leisure and campus facilities.
Ipswich Village Car Park is a council-operated surface lot located off West End Road in the vibrant waterfront district. The facility offers 120 sealed tarmac bays, including six accessible spaces positioned adjacent to the pedestrian crossing leading to Waterfront Leisure Centre. Pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless cards, and mobile payments; tariffs are £2 per hour with a daily cap of £10, and an evening flat rate of £4 after 6:00 pm. High-intensity LED floodlights illuminate all aisles from dusk until dawn, and four CCTV cameras monitor entrances, exits, and accessible bays for security. Covered information boards display event timetables for Waterfront Theatre, local bus schedules for services to the town centre, and university term dates. Pedestrian pathways link directly to Waterfront Leisure Centre, University of Suffolk campus, and adjacent restaurants within a two-minute walk. Monthly maintenance includes line repainting, pothole repairs, and litter clearance to maintain a clean, safe environment.
