24-hour secure multi-storey parking in Sunniside precinct
Sunniside Multi-Storey Car Park is a six-level concrete parking deck located at 13 William Street in Sunderland city centre (postcode SR1 1UL). Managed by Sunderland City Council, it provides 620 parking spaces, including 20 Blue Badge bays (ground level) and 10 motorcycle bays. The car park operates 24 hours, with Pay-On-Foot machines at each entrance/exit accepting cash and card payments. Tariffs are £2.50 for up to two hours, £5.00 for up to four hours, and a daily maximum of £10.00. Electric vehicle charging is available via two 22 kW fast chargers (payment via app). The structure is fully lit with LED panels on every level and is monitored by a 24-hour CCTV system. Pedestrian access is via stairwells and two lifts serving all levels, with direct link bridges to Sunniside shopping and leisure precincts. Disabled users benefit from level access and tactile paving. The rooftop level offers panoramic views of the River Wear and city skyline. Seasonal demand peaks during students term times due to proximity (200 m) to University of Sunderland campus.
