🌊 Join Us to Protect Newquay's Car Parks! 🚗Residents and visitors of Newquay, it’s time to come together! Cornwall Council is considering handing over 25 car parks—including 5 in Newquay—to a private company. Once transferred, these car parks will charge fees year-round, including in winter.
This proposal threatens to:
❌ Harm tourism, as many visitors have already vowed not to return due to fines at ANPR car parks like Fistral and Little Fistral.
❌ Damage the local economy, with fewer visitors supporting businesses.
❌ Limit access to our beloved spots for locals who can’t afford to pay, creating inequality in who gets to enjoy our beaches, walks, and surf.
We believe these car parks should remain community assets, with all revenue reinvested into the local community.
đź“… When: Saturday 11th January at 11am
đź“Ť Where: Watergate Bay Car Park (park here while its still free)
This is about more than parking—it’s about protecting Newquay’s spirit, economy, and accessibility for all. Let’s stand together and make our voices heard.
Please share and spread the word! đź’™ #ProtectNewquay #CommunityNotProfit #NewquayForEveryone
