The scheme (until 31st March 2025) offers free parking in the evening from 6pm and weekends from 12pm to support the Community Club whose members generate funds for Wythall Community Association. However, this allows non-subscribing members of the public to use the park facilities for free during these times. This change will enable more park users to contribute to the upkeep of Wythall Park.

Smart Parking (the company running the Car Park facilities on behalf of Wythall Community Association) will issue a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN).

The new regime commences on the 31st March 2025 at 00:00.

No. The parking system does not require vehicle registration within a specified period of time after entry. As long as you purchase a ticket (valid for your entire stay from the original time of entry) prior to leaving the Park, you will not incur a PCN.

There is a 15-minute grace period. If you enter and exit the Park within 15 minutes, there will be no charge.

Yes. Each entry and exit is recorded by the system. Exiting closes the paid transaction, so when you return, you will need to pay again.

You can either pay by cash or card at the car parking machines for up to 24 hours or you can pay for parking using the RingGo app or website.

If you're a member of the Club, Association or a constituent group you can buy an annual permit.

Existing season tickets will be honoured until their expiry. We cannot notify owners individually, but we can check expiry dates by registration numbers, if requested.

Season tickets are being replaced, although existing tickets will be honoured to expiry.

The new arrangement will allow members of Wythall Community Association and Wythall Community Club to purchase annual car parking permits from as little as £30 per annum. These permits will only be available to subscribing members. These will allow the use of the Car Park for 24 hours a day / 7 days a week until expiry of the permit.

Permits are limited to one per member, except for exceptional circumstances.

You will not get a notification when season tickets purchased under the old arrangements expire (we only have registration number details). Under the new arrangements, we will send a notification of your upcoming car parking permit expiry to the email address we have on file. However, if you fail to renew your permit, there is no grace period and you may incur a PCN, so we advise you to keep your own records.

Yes. Email parking@wythall-park.org.uk with your name, current permit registration number and new registration number giving at least a week’s notice.

Members can apply for a car parking permit as part of the new or renewal membership process, either on-line or by using the forms available in the Club House. The annual car parking fee is £36 for WCA-only members, and £30 for Wythall Community Club members.

As we want to synchronise car parking permits and membership dates wherever possible, for the first year we will allow members to buy permits for up to 12 months to align with their membership renewal dates. The rates will be £3 per month (or part thereof) for WCA-only members, and £2.50 per month (or part thereof) for Wythall Community Club members.

No. Car parking charges still apply for blue badge holders, but you are welcome to buy an annual car parking permit if you are a member.

Yes, when you sign your guest in you can register their vehicle in the Club House.

A car parking permit will store your vehicle’s details on the Smart Parking computer systems. Then, when you enter or leave the Park, the ANPR system will flag your vehicle as being exempt without having to enter your registration number every time.

We have agreed annual parking permit rates for those clubs, but applications must come from the membership officer of the relevant constituent club. Please contact your club for details.

Yes, car parking charges apply 24/7, and except for those groups who meet in Wythall House during opening times, you will need to pay unless you buy a car parking permit.

The concessionary (free) rate offered by entering your registration number in the digital devices in Wythall House or Park Hall (where applicable) is valid until midnight on the day of entry. If you wish to leave your vehicle beyond midnight or overnight, you will need to purchase a 24-hour ticket (£4). This will give you a FULL 24 hours from your original time of entry (not ticket purchase) and therefore must be purchased prior to midnight on the day of entry.

Volunteers needing a car parking permit should contact the Association or Club Officer in charge of their volunteer work to arrange a permit.
