Happy Diwali in Southall

Free parking for Wednesday and Thursday

There will be free parking today (Wednesday 22nd) and tomorrow (23rd) at four council car parks in Southall to support local trade in the lead up to Diwali.

Virendra Sharma MP for Ealing Southall, requested Ealing Council offer the free parking and shoppers will be able to park in any council-owned Southall car park free of charge.

They are:

- Herbert Road multistory car park
- Norwood Road 1 and 2
- Featherstone Terrace
- Southall Market

Charges will return to normal on Friday, 24 October.

Virendra Sharma MP said: “It is great news that the Council has agreed to grant free parking in car parks in the Southall area for Diwali. Constituents, shoppers and local businesses will certainly appreciate this incentive, which will boost business during this period and allow many more to enjoy the Diwali festivities.

'It is however disappointing that the decision has been taken so close to Diwali and leaves only a very short time to advertise.

'I hope that many will be able to enjoy the celebrations in Southall.

'Happy Diwali!’
