On the 1st April 2011, FERA will open their new visitor car park, cycle storage and gate house facilities at the science laboratories near the A64, Sand Hutton. As part of this development, local residents will have the opportunity to use cycle storage and car parking spaces at the site so that they can park and then use the Coastliner bus services.
This is a really positive development and is the result of the efforts of FERA personnel and the persistence of members of the Parish Plan Working Group with active support from the Parish Council. Secure Car Parking Spaces – available at weekends As it is a government laboratory facility, FERA has to maintain strict security and so to use this facility, you will first need to register. This is simple, however, as we have arranged with FERA that you just need to submit your name, full address and car registration number to Laura Edwards, Parish Clerk. 1) Register your name, full address and car registration number with the Parish Clerk 2) On the weekend you wish to park and catch the bus, drive up to the gatehouse and report to reception. They will check your details and then issue you with a numbered pass. Then park in the visitors’ car park with pass on display. 3) When you leave, please return the pass to the gatehouse. The gatehouse operates 24 hours a day. Places are limited to 10 spaces at any one time so please be aware that you are not guaranteed a space and that Security Staff will turn you away if you are not registered or if there are already 10 spaces filled. This is an exciting opportunity for local people and the Parish Plan Group and Parish Council hope that you will enjoy using this new service – a real example of integrated transport and a positive collaboration with an important local business community. To register your details, please contact the Parish Clerk, Laura Edwards with your name, full address and car registration number by emailing laura.edwards@claxtonandsandhuttonparishcouncil.co.uk Or write to the Parish Clerk at Hillmaur Crest, Whinny Lane, Claxton, YO60 7RZ with those details. |
