Parking on the Former Tricorn Centre Site
The former Tricorn Centre site is now a ground-level car park in the city centre, with space for 400 cars (Wikipedia). The site sits at Marketway, Somers Town, Portsmouth, PO1 4RN, making it the most direct choice for drivers visiting the centre’s former footprint.
Portsmouth City Council lists a 24-hour car park with 42 spaces among its council car parks (portsmouth.gov.uk). The council page is the relevant source for comparing council-car-park charges, opening times and locations, while the 400-space site description identifies the larger former shopping-centre car park.
When Parking Around Marketway Gets Difficult
The 400-space car park on the former centre site is a ground-level city-centre facility (Wikipedia). Its location makes it practical for central Portsmouth trips, while the council’s car-park service provides information on charges, opening times and locations for council facilities (portsmouth.gov.uk).
Drivers choosing between the former centre site and council facilities have two published capacity figures to keep in mind: 400 spaces for the former shopping-centre site and 42 spaces for a 24-hour council car park (Wikipedia; portsmouth.gov.uk). These figures distinguish the larger site from the smaller all-day council option without treating them as the same facility.
