Parking in Westminster is going 'easyjet,' meaning 20p an hour car park rates.
In a 12 week trial motorists will be charged in relation to how full the car park is. Though only in Queensway - the scheme will be extended if council chiefs decide it's a success. £2 maximum
Even if the 250-capacity lot is full, drivers will still pay only the maximum £2 an hour. Councillor Danny Chalkley admitted people were put off by high charges and the trial would operate on a "first come first served" basis. He continued: "We have seen the huge success of similar pricing schemes employed by easyJet for their passengers and now hope to emulate this success and provide low cost parking."
