Public notices: RBWM confirms parking charges for 2026/27

Details of the new Royal Borough car parking charges feature in this week’s public notices.

Several council-owned car parks will see increases in season ticket prices in 2026/27, although most hourly parking fees will be unchanged.

Hines Meadow and Vicus Way car parks are among the locations where drivers will see increases to season ticket prices in the forthcoming financial year.

The Vicus Way car park will not be subject to hourly increases but has seen a 4.4 per cent increase in its one-month season ticket offering – now costing £120.

The three-month season ticket is £355 (a 2.9 per cent increase), the six-month ticket is £675 (a 2.3 per cent increase and the annual season ticket is now £1290 (a 2 per cent increase).

A three-month season ticket will now cost £380 at Hines Meadow (2.7 per cent increase). Following a 2.2 per cent increase, a six-month season ticket will now cost £730 at the car park, while an annual season ticket will cost £1,410 at Hines Meadow.

Hourly hikes are planned at Braywick Park, which has 575 spaces

A one-hour stay at Braywick will now cost £1.80 (5.9 per cent increase), a one to two-hour stay will cost £3.60 (2.8 per cent increase) and a four to five-hour stay will cost £10.50 (3 per cent increase).

Prices will be frozen for parking for two to four hours, but the cost of parking for over five hours will be £14.50 (a 3.6 per cent increase).

Three-month season tickets now cost £230 (4.5 per cent increase), six-month tickets are £420 (5 per cent increase), and annual tickets cost £800 (5.3 per cent increase).

Boulters Lock is one of the few Maidenhead car parks to see hourly parking price increases. Parking for one hour is £1.50 (a 7 per cent increase), one to two hours is £2.40 (a 4.5 per cent increase), and two to three hours is £3.20 (a 3.3 per cent increase).

After three hours, the price increases to £5 (8.7 per cent increase), £6.20 for three to four hours parking (3.3 per cent increase) and £7.80 for over five hours (4 per cent increase).

Long-stay prices at Windsor Leisure Centre will remain the same, but a one-hour stay will now cost £2 (5 per cent increase) and a two-hour stay will cost £3 (4 per cent increase).

The Coach Park will no longer have parking for up to one hour, which was previously priced at £18.

A new £40 fee for up to four hours parking will be the first available option, followed by £60 for up to 10 hours – both an 11 per cent and 3.1 per cent increase respectively.

Further changes to hourly rates are planned at a selection of car parks, including East Berkshire College, St Leonards Road, Windsor Library car park at Bachelors Acre and The Avenue Car Park, Datchet.

The new charges will come into effect on April 1.
