Drivers can now use their mobile devices to pay at North Norfolk District Council (NNDC) car parks, as well as cash and card payments.

Detailed instructions will be posted on the tariff boards in all car parks across the district. There are various routes to access the system, including an app, a QR code and by text message.

Richard Price, NNDC cabinet member for assets, said: 'We are very pleased to be introducing this system, which will increase the options people have when using our car parks.

'The process of registering is quite simple and there will be clear instructions in each car park to help people understand what they need to do.'

NNDC runs more than 25 coastal, resort and standard car parks. They are usually open 24 hours a day and parking charges apply from 8am to 6pm. For more information visit www.north-norfolk.gov.uk/tasks/your-community/view-car-parking-locations/
