King's Lynn Gets a New Car Park
Can you boast that you have the best? King's Lynn can.
The new St. James multi-storey car park is situated next to St James Swimming Pool and boasts 701 short-term car park spaces.
The same tariff applies as other short stay car parks but is pay on exit, which means you will only pay for what you have used!
Also, the Albert Street car park (shown as E on the plan) was re-designed in October as a long-stay car park.
