Upper Orwell Street South Car Park is a council-operated facility located off Star Lane, serving visitors to Ipswich waterfront and university precinct. The lot provides 200 sealed tarmac bays, including ten accessible spaces adjacent to the pedestrian crossing leading to the Waterfront Leisure Centre. Pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless cards, and mobile payments; tariffs are £2 per hour with a daily cap of £10, and an evening flat rate of £4 after 6:00 pm. High-intensity LED floodlights illuminate all aisles from dusk until midnight, and three CCTV cameras monitor entrances, exits, and accessible bays for security. Covered information boards display local event listings at the Waterfront Theatre, cycling route maps, and bus timetables for services to the town centre. Pedestrian pathways link directly to the Waterfront Leisure Centre, Student Union, and adjacent cafés within a two-minute walk. Monthly maintenance includes line repainting, pothole repair, and litter clearance to maintain a safe, welcoming environment for students and visitors.
