    Disgusted with this car park. TWO of the lifts were out of order and as we were on a C level we had to go down 2 flights of steps before we found a working lift. Also, the QR code didn't work on our way out, and we were trapped 15 minutes waiting for help before someone responded on the intercom, and she sounded like she didn't know what she was doing. If you don't want to become NCP'S prisoners, park on Market Place with its number plate recognition.

    Tried using the app to pay, which claims to be user friendly and easy. It has over 100 questions in the FAQ! To park a car in a car park! Absolutely ludicrous. The QR code wouldn't work so I grabbed a ticket and then had to pay the regular way, rendering the code I had for free parking completely useless. All made the entire parking process seem really complex. Bring back people in booths taking money and shove your useless app up your bottom!

    Exposed drug needles left outside the stairwell for an entire working period (9am-5pm) in plain sight. Definitely not a child friendly carpark, unless you count the 14 year olds drinking vodka and smashing bottles in the stairwells.

    Very expensive. Car park is ok, until something breaks and then the inbuilt phone line is of no help. “I cannot hear you and I will be disconnecting this call”. Not ok. Not on. What was broken was the QR code reader. So I couldn’t get into the car park to get my car until someone else came along to let us in. Had to stand in the freezing cold…

    Very secure car park. Hundreds of spaces (700+) and nice wide aisle's. Close proximity to the town centre situated near the Market Place just off Topp Way. Reasonable prices, free for first 2 hour's on weekdays, then £3.10 up to 3hrs then £4.10. Free at weekends and Bank Holidays.

    Definitely no longer free at weekends. It's cheaper if you want to faff around downloading and registering for their app but if you just want to park up and pay using a normal payment card then it's quite expensive and you feel ripped off because they are pushing you towards the pointless app. The charges are listed on their website and you pay on exit which I prefer. The experience was easy enough and there were plenty of spaces, it was just expensive for where it is and I'd probably just park somewhere else in future.

    Secure car park. Entrance for cars has roller shutter doors down until you take a ticket. Re entry on foot requires your car park ticket doing before the doors will open. Free parking on Saturdays and Sundays. Very clean and tidy. Good disabled parking and child parking bays. One lift was out of order when I visited.

    Have just returned from parking in NCP Top Way carpark in Bolton as it said on the website free parking at weekends. No such luck. I was charged £3.60 for 2 and a half hours parking. What happened to free parking in December? I’m absolutely disgusted and will not park there again. I was in town to do some voluntary charity work, a rip off.

    Went into Bolton town centre today to do a few hours shopping. Charged £4.80 at this car park. Safely say I won't be parking there again. Cannot believe they have the nerve to charge this much when the businesses need all the help they can get. Know wonder people shop in Bury and other places.

    Plenty of spaces, cheaper if use app and arrive before 09:30 and stay all day, if you come after that and stay for 4 hours it is twice the price which is weird as you think freeing up a space give value to them

  • 1/5 Central “Central Scrutinizer” S. 4 months ago on Google • 51 reviews
    Broken entrance and exit barriers. Place looks a mess and doesn't give confidence car will be safe. Drug users hanging around at top of stairwell. Could not access car park to get back to my car. Door would not read ticket. Spent 5 minutes on intercom trying to get in. My advice park somewhere else.

    Very secure with shutters and a ticket entry on foot into the car park. Although some doors have been broken for a few months with no sign of them being fixed, but have been secured. Large spaces, usually very quiet. Offers an early bird parking offer before 9am weekdays. I pay £2.45 for a full day parking. Gets checked often by staff.

👍👍 Plenty of spaces in the first car park. And more spaces further up the road if needed. I noticed there's not a whole lot of disables bays. But the spaces are plentiful and plenty wide enough.

👍👍 Great car park maintained by the Woodland trust. Car parking is free with a donation ,have to admit I don't pay every time, usually once a week as I go there nearly every day. The cafe truck is great, although I think must be shut over the colder months.

👍 this will be a good place when established but it is restrictive for wheelchair users like myself not able to get to the high points of the park even though it could easily put in paths without steps so you miss out on a lot of the veiws

👍👍 Excellent car park. Really secure and cheap prices. When you arrive at the car park both shutters are down. This is the added security the car park has. When you slowly drive up to the shutter it will open to let you through. It is the same when exiting the car park.

👍 A really good car park with 2 hours free. Also graft for electric car charging. The only problem is the large groups of smack heads who like to hand out in and around the car park, always looking for something to steal. It makes you feel a bit uneasy leaving your car there. Or Even walking to and...
