Parking, The Plaza Swords ?

Bongalongherb · 2014-09-24 16:33:10

Does any-one know if there is free parking close to the plaza in main street swords ?. I will be doing a 3 day job there in a few days and don't want to be paying a fortune in that car-park. Thanks. I read on a different thread... that parking in the underground car-park at the plaza is €4 a day, is this still the case, or…

I read on a different thread...

the underground car park across from the pet shop, it's €4 per day, €1 for two hours, then goes up to four.

that parking in the underground car-park at the plaza is €4 a day, is this still the case, or has it gone up in charge. The thread I read it from is just over a year old.

The parking behind the Star & Cock Tavern is no longer free though.

Thanks Stheno

It was just confusing to get the correct charge in regards to older posts. That's not too bad for the day so.

Cheers.

Update: Parking in the underground car-park at the plaza in swords is €4 for 24 hours, That's what they are charging now. A fiver saved for the work-week . I was expecting it to be €5 but they must have lowered it again to €4.

There is plenty of free parking from eddy rockets up to the roundabout, a small walk but will save you significantly over a year (€4 per day will be over €800 per year),

Hey all, I am meant to be travelling up to Swords tonight for a friend's thing in Wright's Cafe, which I believe is on Main Street. I will be having a few drinks so I am looking for a place to park the car until about 11 or 12 noon tomorrow. I have seen that I can pay for parking on main street to cover me from 8am to 10am, but this is a bit of a hassle to get to from where I am staying.... Is the underground car park that ye speak of on this thread open overnight? If so, I could park there when I land up tonight around 8pm and collect it tomorrow around 12 o'clock.

If it is not open overnight, is there anywhere I can park overnight that I wont have to go to early in the morning to put money in the meter?

Thanks!
