THERE’S lots of festive free parking available around Teignbridge this Christmas.

As Christmas Day falls on a Sunday this year the usual fee free rules apply in all Teignbridge Council car parks.

This year there’s an additional three days free parking – next Monday and Tuesday, December 26 and 27, and on Monday, January 2.

New Year’s Day, like Christmas Day, will be covered by the usual Sunday rules.

Sally Henley, Newton Abbot town development manager, said: ‘Signs have been clearly placed in all car parks so that shoppers are fully informed.

‘Payment will still be accepted in these machines and refunds will not be issued for any payments made in error.

The free parking does not include the Asda car park.’
