Are but we're talking Weymouth council here The council that welcomes it's visitors every year by increasing car parking charges in the holiday season..

Winter - Mon-Sun 08:00 - 18:00
1 Hour £0.50

Summer - Mon-Sun 08:00 - 18:00
1 Hour £1.00


A day on the beach with the kids that will be £8 please sir

Clip from local newspaper November 2019
" Weymouth and Portland Borough Council clocked up £2m in profit from parking charges last year "

All praise to the many local councils that offer free parking.. but I bet there ain't many seaside/tourist towns among them..
