Avoiding the busier times

If you’re not visiting on the weekends during the festive period, you can benefit from a quieter time by visiting during the week where there is no booking necessary, and the normal coach parking tariffs will apply. Read the full information for coach operators – City of York Council.

City of York Council would like to remind all coach operators visiting the city to switch off their engines when they are parked or stationary for any length of time.

The Council has banned all unnecessary engine idling throughout York so as to protect the environment and people’s health.

Idling is banned in council coach and car parks and they have regular patrols to enforce this policy.

Please support the council’s ‘Kick the Habit’ anti-idling campaign and remember by remembering to switch off your engines when parked.
