Free parking offer for regular swimmers at Peterborough's Lido
Swimmers who regularly take a dip at Peterborough’s Lido are being offered free parking.
The initiative is aimed at encouraging more people to get swimming in Peterborough.
It means that swimmers who purchase passes for 20 and 40 swims will receive a permit for free parking at the Regional Pool car park in Bishop’s Road.
The scheme will run throughout this year's Lido season until September 30.
The offer has been put together jointly by Peterborough City Council and Vivacity.
The move coincides with the launch of another free parking scheme in Peterborough which has been funded by the Combined Authority.
From August 3 parking will be available free of charge after 3pm at the council's Bishop’s Road, Car Haven, Riverside and Pleasure Fair Meadow car parks.
Councillor Shabina Qayyum, leader of Peterborough City Council, said: "We've launched this to encourage even more people to get swimming and also enjoy what our city centre has to offer, so I would encourage everyone to use it."
