Electric Car Chargers

LLA now have 6 Tesla chargers and 4 type 2 tethered Electric Vehicle charging points available to the public.  The points are available on the 2nd floor of the Terminal Car Park 1.

The Electric points are free to use for the public however normal car parking charges apply in the Terminal Car Park 1.

Please Pick Up responsibly

We’ve provided a range of Pick Up facilities, and some are completely FREE, so there’s no need to stop anywhere else. Stopping on approach roads, roundabouts or bus lanes can be unsafe and cause traffic congestion. Mobile CCTV cameras and enforcement charging are in use.

Special Assistance Parking

We have dedicated spaces for blue badge holders and people with reduced mobility in all of our car parks at LLA.
