The service will include (but not be limited to): Installation, operation, and maintenance of payment systems (where applicable). Councillors would prefer both app and cash options but is flexible. Parking enforcement and issuing of Parking Charge Notices (PCNs) in accordance with relevant legislation and industry codes of practice. Provision and maintenance of signage compliant with statutory and regulatory requirements preventing compliance challenge(s). Customer service support, including handling of appeals & complaints Income collection, reporting, and reconciliation on behalf of the Parish Council. Routine inspection and maintenance of equipment.

The contract term will be four years, with the option to extend at the Authority's discretion. There is also the option of extending parking management to our Moredon Sporting Hub with around 180 spaces later in 2026. The St Marks Park in North Central Swindon hosts 10 tennis courts, shop and pavilion cafe. It has 41 standard and 2 disabled parking spaces. There is no gated access, there is electricity on site and a cafe which opens 7 days generally between 09.00-16.00 but these times cannot be relied upon. The site hosts a number of tennis events and is one of the largest outdoor tennis venues in Southern England. The site is misused by town centre commuters and local apartment residents and we would encourage legitimate use of the car park which is extremely busy.
