Halifax's pedestrianised streets
Parking and shopping
Halifax welcomes shoppers arriving by car. There are over 250 on-street car parking spaces in the central core and over 2500 spaces in car parks in or adjacent to it - see Where to park . In addition there are almost 50 on street disabled badge holder parking spaces.
The town centre has been divided up into quarters which are accessible from the informal ‘ring road’. Except for the Market Quarter, motorists have direct access to the part of town they wish to visit. Colour coded signing guides drivers into the correct area. Because unnecessary traffic has been discouraged from short-cutting through the town, streets are user friendly both for pedestrians and for drivers needing to park near the shops of their choice.
