About

The Long term capital plan allocation for Jersey Car Parks (2012 – 2032) includes Ann Court Car Park and the rebuild of four multi storey car parks: Minden Place, Pier Road, Green Street and Sand Street at an overall cost of £58 million.  The income total in 2011 was £6,450,000 with parking charges and fines making up the majority at £5,987,000.  Jersey Car Parks are anticipating an £18 million shortfall in funding if additional measures are not taken.​
