Norton Road Car Park improvement work
Work will begin tomorrow to improve the Norton Road Car Park in Hove.
The overnight work is scheduled for Thursday 29 and Friday 30 May, and forms part of a broader council plan to modernise the city’s car parks.
As part of the upgrade of this car park, the layout of the parking bays will be reconfigured to better accommodate the size and needs of today’s modern vehicles, with the number of bays reduced from 290 to 180.
The changes are being made to reduce the capacity and the structural load on the car park.
It gives us the opportunity to make spaces larger and carry out essential maintenance and improvements.
To minimise disruption, the car park will remain open throughout the work with only half of the car park affected each night. Season permit holders will still have full access.
Access details will be available on-site and on the council website to guide drivers.
Visitors needing alternative parking can use King Alfred Car Park, located a 10 minute walk away.

Better Experience for drivers
Councillor Trevor Muten, Cabinet Member for Transport and City Infrastructure said: “Norton Road Car Park plays a vital role in supporting residents, visitors and local businesses.
“These changes will mean a better experience for drivers and form part of our commitment to modernising public infrastructure and creating accessible, well-managed spaces that reflect the way some people choose to travel.
“We appreciate the public’s patience as we carry out this important work.”
