Figure out why you're building a car park and for whom. Who you intend the car park to be used by will determine the kind of facilities and technology you need. Before you can build a car park, you’ll need to be granted planning permission. Having a solid design concept is a major factor when you present your designs to the local authority – and any potential investors or stakeholders. Even if you’re planning just a simple surface level car park, you’ll need to ensure you work with approved contractors. Britannia Parking already works with experienced contractors, ensuring all work carried out is compliant with construction and health and safety regulations.

To set up a park, you can create a group to make it happen, including Friends of the Park groups and more complex structures. This guide also outlines how to set up a group to make this happen. “Friends of” groups are traditionally the most common groups associated with parks. Their roles have included: Being the ‘eyes and ears’ on the ground to promote positive behaviour in the park, Fundraising for improvements, Working with the parks team to carry out conservation tasks, planting and or adding planting and maintaining some beds/areas of the park. You can also look to local groups for inspiration, see Friends of Horsenden Hill for an Ealing based example. See more about why and how you can set up a “Friends of” group here and with these how to guides.
