Convenient parking for Northgate shops.
North Avenue Parking is a council-managed, tarmacked surface lot located on North Avenue, Wakefield (WF1 4SN), serving residential streets and local shops along Northgate. The facility provides around 70 spaces, including three accessible bays adjacent to the pavement on North Avenue. Tariffs are £1.00 per hour, maximum stay 3 hours MondaySaturday 08:0018:00; Sundays and bank holidays are free. LED column lighting illuminates the lot from dusk until 22:00, and CCTV cameras cover all aisles. A pedestrian footpath leads to Northgate retail parade (0.1 miles), which includes convenience stores, cafés, and a pharmacy. The asphalt surface was resurfaced in 2021, with bay markings repainted; drainage gullies along the perimeter prevent pooling during heavy rain. Regular patrols by Wakefield Council wardens deter long-term parking.
