Car parking charges will be introduced at Denton Road Car Park (also known as Ilkley Pool and Lido Car Park) on 1 November 2024. The charges will cover Monday to Sunday, 8am to 6pm.
People who are having swimming lessons with Bradford Aquatics or are a ClubActive member have been contacted directly. Day visitors to Ilkley Lido will be expected to pay to park their vehicle.
Cllr Alex Ross-Shaw, Bradford Council's Executive Member for Regeneration, Planning and Transport said: "We understand parking charges are always an emotive issue but in the current financial climate we’ve had to make a number of tough choices to generate revenue in a sustainable and manageable manner. Revenue from parking charges goes towards maintaining and improving infrastructure, enforcing regulations and investing in sustainable transport initiatives.
"We try to take a consistent and fair approach across the district and this year have decided to introduce charges at Denton Road Car Park.“
Parking charges are as follows -
1 hour – £1
2 hour - £2
3 hour – £3
4 hour plus – £4
