Car parks owned by Malvern Hills District Council (MHDC) in Great Malvern will soon undergo work to improve the safety and accessibility for users.
Works will include essential maintenance and accessibility improvements, such as redesigned parking bays with new yellow hatching, tactile paving, and designated EV charging with accessible access.
Other updates will include new Blue Badge signage, modifications to kerbs and surfaces, and a pedestrian walkway near public facilities, all aimed at ensuring safe and convenient access for all users.
The car parks will still be open to use, however, a small number of spaces will be unavailable.
The planned works will start on the Priory Road North and South Car Parks next week (23 June) and will last five weeks.
Following these works, improvements will be made to the below council-owned car parks over the coming months:
Improvements have already been made to the car parks in Upton-upon-Severn and work is ongoing in Tenbury Wells.
Cllr John Gallagher, Portfolio Holder for Resources at Malvern Hills District Council, said: “These works are so important in making all our car parks accessible for all users. This will help residents and visitors feel confident and safe when visiting our town centres.”
