Cost of all-day parking in central Christchurch building goes up
Motorists will soon have to pay $15 to park all day in a city council-owned central Christchurch parking building.
The Christchurch City Council decided to increase the price from $10 to $15 citing the Christchurch Hospital park-and-ride operating from the parking building and new shops and businesses opening nearby.
"There is now high demand for short stay parking and the Lichfield St parking building regularly nears capacity," it said.
The new charge will start on July 1. The council said it hoped charging more would free up more short stay parking spaces.
The Lichfield St car park building has 805 parks and initially ran below capacity.
