Think you can pay by cardAnybody used these parking machines yet?
Do they take cash or card or what?
TIA.
Thank you.Think you can pay by card
Nobody would rather payOr just scrap the parking which locals never wanted anyway.
I appreciate that but Seaham is only just recovering from being a ghost town after the pit closure.Nobody would rather pay
If I go anywhere for a dodge , down the coast ,into the dales etc
The first thing I do when I park up is look for a meter
They've gradually made it more visitable at a cost so they are trying to generate something back.
Not many councils rolling in money these days
It's come a long long way since the pits ,so has Murton . Those cars parking there aren't skint . Tight maybeI appreciate that but Seaham is only just recovering from being a ghost town after the pit closure.
I would hasten to add that the local businesses aren't rolling in money either the knars

The Council have done nowt to make Seaham more visitable. If anything they’ve reduced it over the last few years. Carnival stripped right down, fireworks cancelled.
Tommy was funded by the public.if the public hadn’t paid for it the Council were going to let it go!
The restaurants on the front are all private enterprises. It’s them that have made Seaham more visitable and the Council have hoyed it back in their faces.

What about the very successful food festival? Ran by Durham County CouncilThe Council have done nowt to make Seaham more visitable.
The Seaham folk unanimously wanted leisure facilities, and a pool to replace Dawdon and Murton pit ponds.Ok ,sounds like you're local ,all the developments from say 2000
No local council involvement?
East shore ,asda etc ?
Yeah these swimming pools come up a lotThe Seaham folk unanimously wanted leisure facilities, and a pool to replace Dawdon and Murton pit ponds.
Imagine having to pay for your dogging. That would make me angry as well.I heard it was some angry doggers that pulled it out.
The owner of the north shore cafe has said it's hit his takings. I've no doubt it will hit others as well. I know people who liked Seaham because of the free parking. It was a good incentive to visit. Judging by the number of empty spaces on Friday afternoon along the front, it looks like folk are going elsewhere.I appreciate that but Seaham is only just recovering from being a ghost town after the pit closure.

You said the council hadn’t done anything to promote Seaham - what about the very successful food festival which they organise?East Shore? Private housing.
Asda? Private enterprise.
Any more?
