How it works
- Drive up to the entry barrier where Automatic Number Plate Recognition will recognise your number plate and the barrier will raise.
- Find a parking space and walk the short distance to the terminal. Keep hold of your keys.
- When you return, simply walk back to your car, remembering which coloured zone you have parked in.
- To leave the car park, simply drive up to the exit barrier where the Automatic Number Plate Recognition will again recognise your number plate and the barrier will raise automatically.
