Staff permit 5

Talbot road multi-storey car park.

Notice

During any government lockdown which results in Talbot Multi Storey car park being closed, please use East Topping St car park, there’s no need to display any note as the civil enforcement officers will obtain your permit information when they scan your vehicle registration plate.

How it works

Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is in use at this site. This allows much easier access to the site by means of video cameras reading your registration number at the entry and exit barriers.

Drive up to the barrier and stop level with the entry station machine as if you were going to present your access card to the machine. The camera will scan your registration plate, perform a look-up within the system database, and provided you are a legitimate user the barrier will raise to allow entry.

This process can take perhaps 5 seconds or longer to perform. Please be patient and give the system time to do its work.

If, after perhaps 20 seconds or so the barrier has still not raised to allow you in, present your access card to the reader in the usual way, do not press the green button to issue a chip-coin, if you do, you will be expected to pay in the usual way.

Instead, use the help button just below the speaker for assistance.

Check the condition of your vehicle registration plate often and keep it clean.

If the ANPR fails to recognise your vehicle registration plate, place your access card against the card reader to enter or exit the car park.

Take your access card with you when you leave your vehicle. Without it, you will not be able to re-enter the car park when you return.

Normal opening times: Monday to Sunday, 7.00am to 12.00 midnight.

Care should be taken to avoid losing your access card. Also, it has a digital chip and antenna within it, so do not punch a hole in it to place it on a key-ring, you will damage it.

If however you card should become lost or stolen please inform parking services 01253 476395. The card will be cancelled and logged as invalid within the system. Subject to a £10 administration fee being paid, a replacement card will be issued.

Vehicles must be parked in properly marked bays and on no account are you to park in reserved bays or bays marked disabled.

For security reasons, the pedestrian access on Talbot Road closes at 6.30pm each day. Use the Deansgate entrance after this time.
