Created by the British Parking Association it aims to support the environment and encourage people to make more eco-friendly transport choices. Park Active enables motorists to drive to and leave their vehicle at a car park location outside of a town centre and complete the remainder of their journey on foot or by bicycle. In Colchester, motorists will pay a discounted parking rate for doing so.
