Secure 24/7 parking for Leisure Ireland site & community facilities
Leisure Ireland Parking is a private 150-space surface car park serving the Leisure Ireland regeneration site and nearby industrial units on McDonnell Drive. Operated by a private facilities manager, it offers 8 designated disabled bays near the community centre entrance. Access is 24/7 with a coin-operated barrier for casual users; permit holders receive a proximity fob enabling barrier-free entry. LED floodlights are mounted on four 10 m poles to ensure nighttime visibility, and a 360° CCTV camera on a central pole provides full coverage. The tarmac surface is maintained quarterly, with drainage gullies inspected monthly to prevent standing water. Pedestrian walkways link directly to the Exhall Link Road bus interchange (3 minutes) and the new community gym (2 minutes). Two Type 2 EV charging points are available at the southeast corner of the site, requiring registration via the payment app. Signage at the entrance indicates maximum stay of 12 hours, with rates displayed on a prominent roadside board. Weekend sports events see peak occupancy; additional staff are on-site for traffic management during those times.
