A multi-storey car park will face partial closures as maintenance work gets underway.

The Chantry Centre multi-storey car park will undergo routine repairs starting on Monday, November 3, with one to two floors closing at a time.

The council-owned facility will see contractors begin on floor 4A, expected to be unavailable for roughly two weeks.

During this period, floor 3A will also be closed for some time.

Subsequent work will see contractors progress downwards, with floor 4 next in line.

Disabled parking will remain accessible on alternate floors, with the nearest alternative disabled spaces at Town Mills short stay car park.

Shopmobility spaces on L1A will be temporarily relocated to L3A during work on L2A and L1A.

To maximise space availability for attendees, all floors will be open on Sunday, November 9, for the Remembrance Day parade and on November 21 for the Christmas light switch-on event.

The maintenance, aimed at ensuring the concrete in the car park and the gaps that let it move and expand don’t get damaged, is projected to conclude around the end of February 2026.

Test Valley Borough Council has coordinated the schedule to minimise the impact on key events in the town over the coming months.

To accommodate the anticipated increase in demand during the busier pre-Christmas period, the council has assured that there is capacity in the authority’s other car parks.

The council will also temporarily halt work and reopen all floors on dates when there is expected to be a concentrated surge in demand.

The council is in direct contact with all season ticket holders to provide guidance during the closure of floor 1.

Queries can be directed to the car park team via email at carparks@testvalley.gov.uk or by phone at 01264 368000.
