The Parking Management Company at RCY changed on 7 September 2020 from Horizon to UKCPM east of Weevil Lane from Horizon. Parking Management is in force for all areas East of Weevil Lane.
The RCY parking zones will all remain as currently configured for the time being (see information re the future of RCY car parks below).
Leaseholders entitled to parking permits at RCY have been sent a letter from UKCPM to introduce themselves, together with a new pack of Visitor Day Permit scratch cards.
Parking permits
For most residents, no action is required. Just leave your existing Horizon permit in your vehicle until further notice. Horizon permits showing an expiry date of 31 May 2020 (which had already been extended to 31 August 2020) will be recognised by UKCPM as valid for parking in the designated zones, as now, until further notice. No charge will be made for this further extension of validity and no action is required from you. You do not need to apply for a new permit as long as your vehicle is still displaying the Horizon permit.
If you moved into RCY after 31st May and paid Horizon for parking through to the end of August but were not issued with a physical permit, you will need a new physical permit from UKCPM which will be valid from 7th September. This will be issued to you at £5. Please contact UKCPM on 03454635050 or permits@uk-cpm.com . Please do not delay in contacting.
After 7th September cars which are not showing a physical permit for the relevant zone(s) may be issued with a Penalty Charge Notice.
If you are a motorcycle user you need not take any action. Please keep parking in the designated motorcycle parking bays or areas.
Landlords: please make sure that all parking information is passed promptly to your tenants.
Tenants: please contact your landlord for information which they should pass to you promptly.
What's happening with changes to the car parks?
Following the completion of The Bridge House and handover of the building to its new owners, Berkeley Homes had hoped to be in a position to implement the new RCY Car Parking Management Plan (which was approved by Gosport Borough Council in January 2020). Unfortunately, a variety of factors have caused a delay to the plan to start the necessary works. However, it is expected that work will be commence in the coming months.
Once the timeline for works has been agreed, this will be communicated to everyone. To ensure that the works proceed in an orderly fashion, people with cars parked at RCY will be given as much notice as possible of any temporary closures of sections of car parks and temporary parking arrangements. The transition may take several weeks to complete but RMG intends to will use its best endeavours to keep residents fully informed along the way.
The new company, UKCPM, will work with both RMG and Berkeley Homes to manage the car parks as they are currently configured and the eventual transition to the new Car Park Management Plan.
