North Ayrshire Council is closing a number of its car parks to deter those people who continue to visit some of our most popular destinations.Despite clear guidance from the UK and Scottish Governments that people are to take exercise close to their homes and are to engage in only essential travel– some continue to ignore this, putting others at risk, and are driving to busy locations for their walk, run or cycle.
This appears to include people driving here from outwith the area.The Council has therefore taken the decision to close the car parks at our most popular tourist locations to discourage non-essential travel.
