This car park will be closed for redevelopment from 2nd July 2007. There is plenty of alternative parking in the town centre and in addition a free Shopper Shuttle Service (323 Kb)
will be provided on Saturdays and Mondays between Lysses car park and Ferneham Hall.
Since Monday 2nd April 2007 Fareham Borough Council has been responsible for enforcing on-street parking in the borough. Questions and answers have been prepared and should give you more information about how this may affect you as a driver in the borough.

In some of Fareham Borough Council's town centre car parks, a fairer pay system has been introduced, meaning that motorists no longer need to estimate how long they wish to park. The 'Pay On Foot' system has been installed in the town's Osborn Road multi-storey car park and also in the new Market Quay surface car park.
The car parks have been equipped with a system which provides a ticket at the entrance barrier. The ticket is retained by the motorist, who upon their return to the car park, pays at the paystations. The machine gives back the ticket, which is used at the automatic exit barrier upon leaving the car park. At the barrier there is a voice link to the control room, should assistance be needed. Ticket machines are fully automated and can provide change. The barrier system does not allow entry to the car park unless spaces are available.
Lost tickets will be charged at the relevant maximum daily rate. If in doubt please ask for help.
All the Council's other town centre car parks will continue to operate a 'Pay and Display' system.
The procedure for the Pay on Foot system is as follows:

In all other car parks:
Blue Badge holders can park free in all pay and display car parks, only if the Blue Badge is clearly displayed in the parked vehicle, with the expiry date facing upwards. The exceptions are the Pay on Foot car parks, where Blue Badge holders are required to pay. Blue Badge holders who are Borough residents can apply to the Council for a swipe card allowing free entry and exit to the Pay on Foot car parks.
Bring in your blue badge to the Customer Service Centre on the ground floor of the Civic Offices, you will also need to bring along some proof of address. Any one of the following Items will be accepted as proof of address: -
The carer will need to provide the following:
Come into the Customer Service Centre at the Civic Offices with proof of address (see guidelines above), there is a charge of £10 to provide a replacement swipe card. The £10 charge can be paid at the cash office in the Customer Service Centre.
If you are issued with a new blue badge, you will need to bring in your old swipe card; your new blue badge and proof of address (see guidelines above). The swipe card will be reprogrammed to enable you to exit the Pay on Foot car parks.
Please note: - When applying for a swipe card at the Civic Offices, you will need to provide your Blue Badge.
The clock card can be left in your vehicle as evidence of the blue badge whilst you are attending the Civic Offices to renew or replace your swipe card. The clock card alone is not a valid Blue Badge, and should only be left for the minimum period required to renew the swipe card. You must inform the Customer Service Adviser of the time you parked in a disabled bay in order that your free parking can be verified.
Some of Fareham Borough Council town centre car parks still operate with a pay and display system. A ticket with sufficient time to cover your stay should be purchased from one of the ticket vending machines and attached to the inside of the front windscreen of the vehicle. These ticket machines do not give change.
The multi-story car park at Osborn Road [1] provides the most convenient location for direct covered access to the indoor shopping centre. Market Quay car park [12] is now open and provides convenient access to the new Market Quay development and to the southern side of the Fareham Shopping Centre.
Those shoppers visiting shops at the western end of the town may prefer to use the long-stay car parks at the Gillies [17], Holy Trinity Church [19] or the short-stay at Malthouse Lane [10].
Shops at the eastern end or in High Street may be better served by the Lysses [18] long-stay car park.
