Unless you are picking up heavy items, do not bring your car here at peak times. There is only one exit from the car park, and the traffic light sequence is not very sensible, so cars get stuck in the centre. Queues of 100 cars taking about 40 minutes are not uncommon on a Saturday, and don't try leaving at 4 on a Sunday. Better to park in the [[Castle Car Park]] next to [[Templars Square]] or find a street with on-street parking like Rymers Lane right next to it or Cleveland Drive near the pedestrian back entrance. |
