Parking on Bow Lane, PR1
Excellent location, private and secure. Easy walking distance to Preston train station.

Parking at Fishergate Shopping Centre, PR1
Ideal for the railway station, although there wasn’t much difference in the pRice I paid to the actual parking charges. Also, as it was the first time I had used this location, I was a bit confused on exit as I thought I had to put my registration number in the machine, I did this and it said I needed to pay. In the end I called the number on the board explained to the guy and he just told me to drive off and ignore the machine. Hopefully I won’t get a parking ticket!

Parking at Fishergate Shopping Centre, PR1
It was quite simple I had downloaded the app from the previous visit we came and parked and I opened the app and because of my previous visit fishergate shopping centre carpark was in my recommended list so I just chose it pressed the area on the map it brought up the payment page with my previously entered car registration number payment method and I just tapped pay now and the app generated a booking confirmation and that's it!!! Hope this helps anyone parking here by this parking payment system.
