Drivers who are in Morrisons car park in Cwmbran for longer than ten minutes from 11pm to 5am now face a fine of £100

For several years signs have warned about a fine for using the car park for longer than three hours. Customers are told that there is a ‘maximum stay (of) three hours during store opening hours’.

But recently signs have been updated to say there is also a: “Maximum stay (of) ten minutes outside of these times.’

The signs in the car park now warn about the 10 minute limit

Cwmbran Life contacted the supermarket to find out more and was told the new ‘ten minute’ limit applies during a specific time zone.

A Morrisons spokesperson said: “We can confirm that we have introduced a new 10 minute limit in our car park between the hours of 11pm-5am whilst the store is closed. New signs were introduced in advance to make customers aware of the changes before they took effect.”
