SEASON tickets for Wyre Forest District Council's car parks are set to go digital next month.

From Monday, June 2, anyone renewing or purchasing a season ticket can only do so from the JustPark website or mobile phone app, available for iPhone and Android.

Wyre Forest Council says the change will offer extra benefits for season ticket holders as they will no longer need to display a physical ticket. The app will also send real time reminders when the user's season ticket is expiring.

Linda Draycott, corporate director for community, wellbeing and environment at Wyre Forest District Council, said: “We are noticing a growing trend of people using JustPark when paying to park in the district and we really want to meet that demand.

“Moving away from physical tickets is a big step forward and I’m sure existing, new and future season ticket holders understand the great benefits of doing it digitally.”

The move will not affect pay and display machines at council car parks, which will still accept cash.

Drivers can register for JustPark in advance or on the spot at a car park. Visit justpark.com/season-tickets/wyreforestdc for more information.
