A CHARGE for overnight parking near the Dips in New Brighton starts tomorrow, July 8.
The new, experimental traffic regulation order comes into force on a stretch of Coastal Drive.
The new TRO will extend the area that prohibits motor caravans from parking next to the Dips
The order will mean that motorhomes and camper vans will have to pay a £20 charge to legally park there overnight between the hours of 10pm-8pm.
At any other times parking will be free of charge.
A spokesperson for Wirral Council said: “The order will be in place for 18 months initially and because it is an ETRO it can be kept under review to gauge its effectiveness at managing issues caused by visitors staying overnight in their vehicles on the public highway in New Brighton.
"In the meantime, the council will continue to investigate the viability of providing a dedicated, serviced site in the area for touring vehicles."
