A Melton Borough Council spokesperson said: “To address a clerical error while implementing the new car parking charges in April 2025 we have suspended all car parking charges in council owned car parks with immediate effect until 14th June 2025. Payment machines will be covered and no payments should be made in either the parking machines or on the ‘Pay by Phone’ app during this period. All other parking restrictions remain in force.”

Details of the new car parking charges, the same as previously advertised, can be seen on the Notice of Variation on signage in the car parks.

Melton Borough Council has confirmed that anyone who purchased a ticket in this time will be refunded. If you paid by app they will already have your details, otherwise go to their Parkside Offices.
