The Kingsway Shopping Centre is set to open its new state-of-the-art car park in the centre of Newport at the beginning of August.
The 1,050 space car park, which includes 30 disabled spaces and parent and child spaces, is located in the heart of city next to the library and Newport Centre.
The car park allows direct access to the newly refurbished Kingsway shopping Centre anchored by Wilkinson and where Peacocks have just re-opened their new larger store.
John Burrows of Newport Unlimited Urban Regeneration Company said "This is a great asset for Newport City Centre and will be convenient for shopping and leisure activities".
Kingsway car park will be open between 8am and midnight providing Newport with modern, secure and accessible parking. The current Capitol car park will close when the new car park opens.
Forty spaces are available for annual permit holders. Further information can be obtained from the centre manager, Michael Hine on 01633 258151.

Near the Leisure Centre, The Riverfront Theatre and Arts Centre and River Usk there are plenty of activities to enjoy after a shopping trip".

The car park is owned by UBS Triton Property Fund.
