Proposed Ban on Loud Music and Revving Engines in Car Park
East Suffolk Council has launched a survey to consider implementing a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) for the Viewpoint Road and Landguard Point car parks in Felixstowe.
Motorists who rev their engines and play loud music late at night may face fines or Fixed Penalty Notices if the PSPO is implemented, as the council aims to crack down on anti-social behaviour.
- The car parks have been a focus of concerns about anti-social behaviour.
- A sign was installed at Landguard car park in January 2024, warning drivers about aggressive driving and noise nuisance.
A PSPO is used to tackle anti-social behaviour issues, with breaches potentially leading to prosecution.
