MOTORISTS parking in Lovemead Car Park today will be able to do so free of charge due to ticket machines being out of service.

The car park on Duke Street, which has 165 spaces and is open 24 hours, has two ticket machines both of which are out of service for an unknown reason.

A Wiltshire Council spokesperson said: “We are getting someone to have a look at the machines this morning and we will address the issue as soon as possible.

“If you are already there you won’t have to pay for a ticket and we will not charge all day at the Lovemead Car Park.”
