North Northamptonshire Council launches development of new car parking strategy

03 September 2025

North Northamptonshire Council has launched a survey to help shape a new car parking strategy.
Once complete, the new car parking strategy will guide the future management of council owned car parks across the whole of North Northamptonshire. The strategy will focus on all 35 of the council-owned car parks, harmonising where possible.

As part of the process, residents are being asked for feedback to help shape the strategy and ensure it responds to local needs.

We know that car parking is something that comes up time and time again, with different provision in place across North Northamptonshire.

This survey is the first stage in the process to move towards one North Northamptonshire wide car parking strategy. As part of this, we need residents’ views and help - please do take some time to complete the consultation so we can feed your views into the new strategy.Cllr Chris McGiffen, the council’s Executive Member for Highways and Travel

It is important that we have a fair strategy across the whole of North Northamptonshire in terms of car parking - especially as the council is now well established.

I hope that regular visitors to our town centres, shoppers and businesses take part in this important first stage of the process to implement a new car parking strategy for North Northamptonshire.Cllr Martin Griffiths, Leader of North Northamptonshire Council

Your Voice Matters

Consultation and engagement activities can be completed online via North Northamptonshire Council’s Consultation and Engagement Hub and the consultation on the car parking strategy will be open until 5 October 2025.

A formal consultation on the draft strategy will follow before it is considered for adoption by North Northamptonshire Council’s Executive.
