Free long-term parking at the Brighton Marina multistorey car park is coming to an end. The Marina has confirmed what drivers will pay, but has not yet said when charging starts.

What you will pay

• Up to 10 hours: £1 an hour.
• 11 to 24 hours: £24.

The tariffs were confirmed by the landlord Landsec on 10 November, after Apcoa published them on its website. The multistorey has around 1,500 spaces and ticket machines are already installed.

Who still parks free

• Berth holders.
• Eligible site employees.

David Lloyd members are not exempt yet. The Marina says it is working with David Lloyd to arrange free access for members, but nothing is confirmed.

Why the Marina says it is doing this

A Marina spokesperson said the system is meant to "improve safety, security, and help fund ongoing maintenance". The Marina has described the charges as "the most competitive in Brighton".

When does it start?

No start date has been set. The Marina says it will announce the date and full details before charging begins, so check the Marina's own notices before you park.

The Asda car park at the Marina is run separately by the supermarket and still offers up to two hours free.
