Bedford Borough Council has announced that Lurke Street multi-storey car park will be closed for two days this month to allow for essential maintenance work to take place.

Anyone needing to park in the town centre on either Monday, 12 or Tuesday, 13 January, is advised to use any of the nearby car parks, including St Peter’s Street, Queen’s Street (two hours’ free parking every day) or River Street.

The closure is to allow damaged shutters on the car park to be replaced.

A spokesperson for Bedford Borough Council said: “All customers with a Lurke Street season ticket will be able to park on St Peter’s Car Park for these two days.

“Signage has been put up informing customers of this arrangement.”
