*Road Closure Update*
Starting Monday 16 May the main access route to Central Car Park via Seasider's Way will be closed to traffic for construction of the new multi-storey car park. Here's what you need to know:
✦ Parking will be reduced to approximately 800 spaces with access via the main entrance on Central Drive
✦ Disabled bays are still available at Central car park, situated along the fence by New Bonny Street, opposite Coral Island and near the entrance at Chapel Street. Disabled badge holders are permitted to use all the bays on Central Car Park, not just the designated disabled bays, with 3 hours free parking.
✦ The link down to Chapel Street will remain closed
✦ Diversions will be signposted, with traffic diverted via routes at Parkinson Way/Waterloo Road and Bloomfield Road
✦ Other car parks in the area remain unaffected - please park as early as you can to avoid disappointment
✦ Other car parks in the area include South car park, Bloomfield Road, Lonsdale Road, Seasider's Way and Foxhall Village. They are all still in use and accessible.
✦ Pedestrian routes will be clearly marked

When complete, Blackpool Central is expected to create over 1,000 new jobs for local people and attract 600,000 more visitors to Blackpool each year!
