Detailed FAQ on the rental process
All local parking lots are equipped with special machines that are used to make payments. Drivers, who count on using such parking lots, must get enough coins of small denominations in advance. Parking machines accept coins of 20 and 50 pence, and 1 pound coins.
In the UK, not all paid parking lots are guarded. Finding a free parking in the center of the city is simply impossible - they are usually located in remote areas. Unless stated different, leaving a car in a free parking lot is permitted for no longer than two hours.
If there is the «Residents parking» sign near the parking lot, it means that only cars that often drive through the marked area are allowed to park there.
