Adur District Council has made the decision to offer two hours free parking at various sites for Christmas shoppers.
Middle Street, Tarmount and Shoreham Centre car parks in Shoreham; North Farm Road and Little Croft car parks in Lancing and Southwick Square car park will all be offering up to two hours free parking.
The dates available are on consecutive Saturdays, December 5, 12 and 19 and Sundays, December 6, 13 and 20.
Cllr Neil Parkin, Leader of Adur District Council, said:
"We wanted to do something to encourage shoppers into our centres to help boost local traders and our pubs, restaurants and cafes when lockdown is lifted.
"It’s been a wretched year for them, and while we have done all we can to help, such as rapidly distributing millions of pounds of business support grants, I hope this little extra bit helps too. These businesses are the lifeblood of our town centres and I would urge everyone to support them in any way you can as I shall be doing."
