Question 1

CAR PARKING

Accepted Answer

Public parking is available on the Pool Road multi-storey car park. Whilst this is a Pay and Display car park, parking is free for Blue Badge Holders. Parking for Blue Badge Holders is available with side transfer areas on multiple levels. Parking on Level 1 allows level pedestrian access within 50 metres of the Hall (at first floor level).

The car park is also served by an accessible passenger lift (including low level tactile controls, voice and visual floor indication) and a staircase. The staircase is ‘easy going’ and the treads are ‘suitable'. Landings are available. A colour contrasting handrail is provided on the outer side of the stairs. The stair nosings also contrast in colour.

Some customers with limited mobility prefer to access the Hall from the rear, via Pool Road, where it's possible to be dropped off and picked up. This must be arranged prior to your visit with Operations Manager Andrew Johnson - please call 01384 812814.
