| KBC/KCC Parking |
The Cricket Club owns the property and we lease our part of the building and share the use of the car park. Now sessions are becoming busier, we do need to remember the parking rules and ensure that we park with due consideration for other users. Usually the parking arrangements for KBC members should be as follows
- First arrivals to park up to the fence line adjacent to the new housing
- The next row (and subsequent rows) must be parked hard up to the first row. Do not leave space for vehicle movements. It is not necessary as we all leave at the same time .
- Emergency vehicle access to our front door should be maintained at all times. Do not park in such a way as to obstruct this.
- Leave access clear to the parking spaces for those with disabilities.
Finally and importantly
- Please do not park on the grass
- Please do not park against the walls of the Cricket club
Occasionally there may be a need for a different parking arrangement and if that is the case someone will be there to direct you.
Thank you for your compliance.
