Two new car parks to ease congestion on Felixstowe seafront


product-autobarriers Two new car parks to ease congestion on Felixstowe seafrontTwo new parking areas comprising 261 off-street parking places have just been open in Felixstowe, in a bid to reduce the on-street congestion at the seafront in the Suffolk resort, a news report in the local media has recently released.

The area suffers severe congestion at weekends when visitors flock to the resort, and for this reason, the need for additional parking has become a lot more dire over the past few years.

The brand-new pay-and-display facilities are part of the community benefits from the £25million Martello Park housing development on Felixstowe’s 17-acre south seafront site, with developers Bloor Homes paying for the construction of the areas. However, the car parks will be owned and run by Suffolk Coastal, with all funds going towards keeping local taxes down.

Car Park Barriers & Turnstiles has an extensive experience in creating advanced, reliable, yet quite affordable access restriction solutions for car parks.

The vehicle barriers developed by Car Park Barriers & Turnstiles can work in any weather, are able to immediately recognise authorised personnel and are supplied complete and ready to accept power and data connections, meaning that they can be easily interlinked with a new or existing access control system. Plus, boom arms are available in a number of different lengths to suit various road widths.

Last, but certainly not least, it’s important to mention that the automatic car park barriers supplied by Car Park Barriers & Turnstiles can also be fitted with a number of useful extras, such as a folding arm mechanism, impact release mechanism or hanging racks / barrier skirts.
