Parking charges are set to rise in some Shropshire Council car parks and on-street parking areas from 3 November [2025], though car parks that are currently free on Sundays and bank holidays will remain so.
It will be the first time charges have risen since 2022, and the additional funding generated will be used to maintain existing car parks, support local road improvements, and contribute to public transport services. This means that general council funds can be focused on protecting other essential services.
The changes will be the first stage of a wider parking review that was agreed by the council’s Cabinet in December 2024.
A summary of the new charges can be seen in the notes below.

Since the last price review in 2022, the impact of inflation has significantly increased the costs associated with the operation, maintenance, and improvement of Shropshire’s car parks, highways and public transport services.
