Parking will be suspended on the main road directly in front of the Open Air Theatre (A165 Burniston Road) on event nights.
This is mainly to ensure pedestrian safety. It will also allow a free flow of traffic in the area. The suspension in place will mean that there can be no parking, stopping or waiting on Burniston Road. Drivers who are dropping off/ picking up passengers on event nights are asked to park on Royal Albert Drive.
