Local authorities reveal that the car park, which will be located near Mas y Mas and the pedestrianised part of the town centre, will have 78 spaces and take around six months to build. The fi rst hour at the new car park will be free of charge, but from the 61st minute a ‘nominal’ charge will be made. Spaces will also be available to rent at a cost of 20 euros a month. The council stresses that the charges for parking are not designed as a money-making exercise, but merely to encourage motorists to use it as a short-stay car park for visiting the banks, post offi ce, town hall, or the shops in the area. It is largely to discourage those who live or work in the town centre from leaving their cars there all day. Given that the area under construction is one of Pego’s main parking places, the council is considering making half of the municipal car park free of charge until the work is fi nished.
