Cliffside pay-and-display parking by Ranelagh Road toilets
Ranelagh Road Car Park is a council-operated surface lot adjacent to the public toilets on Ranelagh Road, providing 70 marked bays including six disabled spaces located near the pedestrian exit. Operating hours are 7 am–10 pm daily; pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless, and RingGo payments; no overnight parking. The tarmac surface is grooved for drainage, inspected quarterly, with pothole repairs completed within 48 hours of reporting. LED bollard lighting ensures visibility for early-morning and evening users, and one CCTV camera monitors entry, exit, and pedestrian walkways. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to Ranelagh Road shops (1 minute walk), to Undercliff Road West seafront (3 minutes), and to local bus stops (4 minutes). Two Type 2 EV charging bays are provided near the entrance, available on a pay-as-you-go basis. Weekly litter clearance and hedge trimming maintain site presentation.
