This is displayed on signs throughout the car park and can also be found on the side of the payment machine.There are four cashless options to choose from:• Downloading the Just Park app to your smartphone• Paying by mobile phone, using details found on the side of the payment machine• For those without a smartphone, you can register with JustPark online at home and pay by SMS (text message) in the car park• Some car park payment machines offer debit/credit card payment, this can be checked in advance online at dorsetcouncil.gov.uk/parkingDrivers may find it beneficial to set some of these options up in advance, such as inputting car registration and card details into the JustPark app while at home or registering for SMS payment online.Cllr Ray Bryan, Dorset Council’s Portfolio Holder for Highways, Travel and Environment, said: “We’re sorry for this disruption. This is very much a temporary measure and we are working hard to reinstate cash payments, which we know are the preferred option for many of our residents.“Please be prepared to use a cashless method of payment while we work through this issue, it’s going to take several weeks to get cash payments operating again.”It’s hoped that cash payments will be available again in all car parks by early December.Continue reading →

- LEISURE BUILDING AT GOLDEN CAP HOLIDAY PARK.
I have been asked to show the ‘amendment’ of the proposed new Leisure Complex at Golden Cap Holiday Park as some people appear to be having trouble finding it on the planning website. Above is an ‘artist impression’ of the new building. This is being put to the planning authority as an ‘amendment’ to the plans passed in 2012. Below is an ‘artist impression’ done by a member of the community back in 2012 of the proposed Leisure Centre which was approved back in 2012.
This ‘amendments – with others is up for ‘consultation’
