Information on the current parking fees and charges in Three Rivers

Important information regarding parking fees and charges:

Please be aware that these fees and charges are set to change from 16 February 2026. Find out more.

Three Rivers District Council is increasing the long-stay parking charge from £4 to £5 for a 24-hour period, effective from 16 February 2026. This is the first rise in this tariff since its introduction in 2016 and reflects rising service delivery costs during this time. All short-stay parking charges remain unchanged. The revised charge remains competitive with other local parking providers whilst covering operational costs and service maintenance.
