Parking

Parking is not permitted in the Broughton Village Centre on the Garstang Road, north of the Pinfold through the crossroads up to the Co-op.

At the crossroads, the No Parking Zone stretches west along Woodplumpton Lane to Downing Close and east along Whittingham Lane to the roundabout. There is signage at both ends but only small signs in the actual zone. It is not Double Yellow lined, due to the type of signage, but it operates the same way.

Parking is not permitted either fully or partly on pavements, engines should not be left running and driveways or roads must not be partly or fully blocked.

If you see a problem REPORT IT! - https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/roads-parking-and-travel/parking/report-a-parking-problem/
