Free parking on Saturdays is no longer be available in Ashton Square, Dunstable, and Duncombe Drive, Leighton Buzzard. This was agreed as part of the budget in February 2024 and aligns with our sustainability plan.

Buses are available to our town centres, with operators offering a £2 fare. Residents who hold a concessionary pass can travel for free at any time across Central Bedfordshire. Additionally, there are special ticket offers on the new Leighton Buzzard routes.

Free parking will still be available in Ashton Square on Wednesdays from 1pm to 6pm and in Duncombe Drive on Tuesdays from 1pm to 6pm.
