In an effort to increase activity in the town centre, Gainsborough will soon offer residents and visitors two hours of free parking. This initiative is being launched by the West Lindsey District Council as part of a broader plan to rejuvenate the local economy, supported by a £615,000 boost from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. This aligns with the government’s mission to ‘level up’. The free parking scheme, set to begin on 1 August, will be in operation across all council-owned car parks. The council predicts this measure will draw more shoppers and visitors, thereby providing a well-deserved uplift to local businesses.
