Yes. It does impact on visiting the supermarket and high street. You can shop in Tesco for more than 1.5 hours and that wouldn’t give you much time on the high street.

I use the car park in the evening to visit Pearl Yard for the photography club. Now I have to park a long way away.The parking should be for the community as it was originally

Two hours parking isn't enough if you want to shop and have lunch at one of the cafes or pubs .

Yes, 2 is not enough. This is a pathetic change that benefits no one.

One question, who sponsors the car Park so that shoppers are subsidised visiting shops other than Tesco .

I like to enjoy Whitchurch when I visit to shop. 2 hrs is enough time to shop only, no time to browse or have coffee, both which i do regularly.

The only time I have had a problem parking there was while the top car park was closed due to the construction of the new swimming pool. This is now open along with more extra spaces. As Tesco's say it is their car park for their customers, they obviously do not care about the tow centre shops etc.

I was fined after parking for 2 hours 10 minutes, I did my shopping in Tesco, then did shopping in the high street and stopped for a coffee, how are we supposed to support our local businesses if we are not supported with parking in the town

Third hour important......
Presently searching for official and legal agreements concerning the original agreement of assignation of land.....suggest that Tesco gave an obligation to the community of Whitchurch
