Parking is available on the street and in car parks.

Tickets can be bought at the nearby machines. Do not park in front of garages, openings or driveways. If you find a space in front of a house on the street, check the kerb stones for alternate red/white ones, it also means you can not park here. A single yellow unbroken line means you can not park here either. Any vehicles illegally parked will be towed away.
