The Gazette revealed today that Blackpool Council is looking to spend £16m on new car parks to provide thousands of spaces in order to meet rising demand.

They would offset the loss of around 1,900 spaces at car parks that are making way for the various developments - including the Blackpool Central project, the new conference centre at the Winter Gardens and the extension of the Houndshill shopping centre.
