Everytime I have used this carpark its been relatively quiet and there has been lots of empty car park spaces.Cheap for a city centre car park £1.60 for a couple of hours.Only issue is spaces are a bit on small side

Good parking close to the city centre. £1.40 between 6pm and 8am, so good for a night out on the town

Very busy car park not very conveniently placed for shops loads of steps up to the gala and the alternative lift up is often broken due to people overloading it is very useful for going to leisure centre and passport officeAnd do pay the parking charges their are always loads of traffic wardens around ready to tickets vehicles just overstaying even by a few minutes

Charges apply to blue badge holders too, so make sure you pay as I have seen them enforce this and charge motorists with blue badges.The car park is in a good location, but it is a bit of a walk up the hill if you want go to the market square or anywhere else up from the river. There are lifts in the adjacent multistorey car park which you can access opposite the passport office entrance.The size and shape mean the Sands is often busy and is easily blocked up by just one or two cars taking their time to maneuver.Contactless Credit card payment is available and seems to work well, so you don't need change.

Right next door to passport office and the car park was half empty at 8.15 when I arrived. It's only a 5 minute walk to the city centre and it's only £1.40 for 2 hours. There are 5 disabled parking places and disabled badge holders are charged the normal rate.

Good spot for parking with about 10min walk to City Centre. Loads of steps to ascend, however there is a bus runs every 20mins whuch takes you into the centre

Plenty of space and reasonable prices for the central location it provides. You do need to pay all night if you are parking late though.

Used in the evening for the Durham ghost walk. Multi-story car park and the ticket machine was easy to use. Take ticket when entering. Pay for ticket at machine before driving out. Also has number plate recognition, so didn't even need scan it at the barrier on way out.
