Here are the new car parking tariffs which come into effect in Lancaster and Morecambe today (April 11).

Prices at St George's Quay and Williamson Park will remain unchanged.
All public permit classes will also rise by 3.3 per cent in line with other fees and charges across the council.
An additional 6pm – 8am tariff of £4 will be introduced in car parks across Lancaster and Morecambe, effective from May.
The council has also added a £5 for five hours tariff on the St Leonardgate car parks in Lancaster.
For those who use city council car parks regularly there are a number of options available that are more cost-effective and include seven day, one month, three month and 12 month RingGo Session permits.
A Lancaster City Council spokesperson said: "This easy and convenient cashless method of parking, which also has an app, not only allows people to pay for their parking from the comfort of their cars and avoid queuing at ticket machines, but also offers car park users the flexibility of being able to top up their parking time by phone wherever they are.
"Text reminders are received when it’s about to run out so is perfect for people on-the-go.
"Five-day permits are also available and mean being able to park in Lancaster from as little as £2.23 a day, or £1.37 in Morecambe."
More information on RingGo is available at the RingGo website here.
