Tollcross Traders Association are happy with the outcome of a recent walkabout in the area with the Edinburgh Councils' Parking Operations Manager. They now have over 40 new pay and display parking spaces.

"Parking is always going to be an issue in a big busy city like Edinburgh so to get another 40 spaces for our customers is a big plus."

"Although the spaces are not free like most out of town shopping centres, at least customers can park safely knwing that their cars will not be subject to a fine or even getting them towed away."

So the message is - Tollcross is open for business.

The new pay & display parking spaces are located at:-

Wrights Houses (behind Barclay Church) - extended to accomodate 8 cars.
10 new spaces in Gilmore Place outside the shops at Lochrin buildings and another 10 west of Hailes Street outside the old TA building.
Gilmore Place nearer Viewforth has 10 new spaces.
Tarvit Street - extended to accomodate 9 cars
Lochrin Place at the Home Street end has now got 10 spaces that are shared use (both pay & display and permit holders).

Have a look at our PARKING GUIDE which gives you a better idea of their location and number of spaces in each street.
