Council may reduce parking fees
Parking charges in south Cumbria could be cut or frozen in a bid to attract more visitors.

South Lakeland District Council is proposing the measures for car parks in Kendal, Ulverston, the Lake District, Grange-over-Sands and Kirkby Lonsdale.

Council officers are recommending that some charges be cut by up to £1 as an incentive to visitors to stay, and shop, for longer.

The cabinet will meet on Wednesday to decide whether to accept the proposals.
