A PARKING partnership has been announced as finalists in five categories at an annual award ceremony.

The North Essex Parking Partnership will be competing for the top prize in the respective communications, back office, parking technology, rising star and parking partnership categories.

Bosses at NEPP, which brings together the local authority parking operations across north Essex, say they are keen to continue its success by highlighting other successful elements of the organisation’s work.

The organisation has been hailed in past events and shows no sign of stopping once again in 2022.

This year’s British Parking Awards will be held at a ceremony at the Royal Lancaster, London, on September 16.

Launched in 2022, they seek to recognise and celebrate “best practice, innovation and achievement” in the design and management of both public and private sector parking.

Daniel Land, chairman of on-street parking at NEPP, said: “This is fantastic news and I’m incredibly proud that NEPP has been shortlisted for multiple awards at national level.

“NEPP is a forward-thinking, innovative organisation which strives to be the best it can be for its customers, partners and communities and this news highlights and recognises this work.”
