Healthcare parking with accessible bays, pay-and-display, and direct access to Primary Care Centre.
Primary Care Centre Parking is a council-operated surface lot serving Colchester Primary Care Centre and adjacent medical practices. The facility provides 120 sealed asphalt bays, including eight accessible spaces positioned closest to the main entrance of the medical centre for step-free access. Pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless cards, and mobile payments; tariffs are £1 per hour with a daily cap of £5 to accommodate clinic appointments. High-intensity LED floodlights illuminate all aisles from dusk until dawn, ensuring patient safety during early or late appointments. A network of six CCTV cameras provides 24/7 surveillance coverage. Covered signage at the entrance displays clinic opening hours, bus timetables for services to the town centre, and pharmacy locations. Covered pedestrian pathways link directly to the Primary Care Centre entrance within a one-minute walk. Monthly maintenance includes line repainting, pothole repairs, and litter collection to maintain a clean, professional environment for patients and staff.
