please park prettily

The daily post reports that the Victoria Centre in Llandudno has been given a Park Mark award, which is given by the Association of Chief Police Officers and managed by the British Parking Association, with support from the Home Office, and has been awarded because the car par has been crime free for 17 years.

“We’re really pleased because the award acknowledges our professional approach to managing our car park and our impressive record over the past several years,” said the Victoria Centre’s manager Sue Nash. The centre’s car park had to go through a rigorous risk assessment and inspection to attain accreditation to the Park Mark standard.This included the submission of its policies and procedures to deter and prevent criminal activity and anti-social behaviour.A state-of-the art entry system, comprehensive CCTV network and regular security patrols have also helped the centre retain its perfect record.

Well done to the Vic, and let's hope that someone, somewhere decides to build another half dozen of the things.
