BigAl1 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 4 minutes ago, SheffieldForum said: Those signs (that were there for at least three years, according to Street View) do state maximum 3 hour stay though, not the ‘virtually unlimited’ you originally posted. Not defending Tesco here, by the way — just pointing out that it hasn’t been unlimited time for a very long time. Sorry you are wrong According to Tesco the new restrictions were introduced because "people were abusing the car park and parking for the whole of the day. This was detrimental to some of our genuine customers who reported, on occasion, difficulties finding a car parking space" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top car park at Morrisons is owned by the Council and the bottom by Morrisons. Surprised the Council have not put some sort of restrictions.

HeHasRisen Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) 42 minutes ago, BigAl1 said: Unfortunately the signs you show have all been changed (perhaps proving my point) as the restrictions were altered this year with a two hour limit imposed. As I have said regular users are unlikely to have noticed the change . I would argue that the signs at the entrance should not be the standard signs elsewhere in the car park but should be designed to draw attention to the fact the rules have changed You could whack 100 signs up, people still wouldn't read them because the average motorist is thick as two short planks. See my example on page 1 of this thread of me sauntering down the timed bus lane on Chesterfield Rd at 1pm whilst everyone crams into the 2nd lane.

It might have changed recently to two hours max, but the signs stating three hours max show on street view for the last four years. 1 Sheffield Forum | The Sheffield Guide | The Sheffield Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Swaine Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Infirmary Road Tesco doesn't even have a cafeteria. Even at Christmas time with the big shops and queues, it never takes more than 90 minutes to shop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
