Wrexham: New parking charges apply as signs are installed

New car park charges were brought in on April 1 in all council owned car parks across Wrexham county.

The signs weren't installed until a week after the new charges were enforced, leaving motorists initially confused on the cost of their parking stay.

As well as the new charging costs, the signs display information all drivers need to be made aware of.

The new charges see people pay £1.50 after 11am for up to two hours, and £2 for all day. Before 11am, an all day ticket is £3 and up to two hours is £1.50.
