National Car Parks (NCP) has confirmed that the Portman Road Car Park, behind the Cobbold Stand at Ipswich Town will close Friday.

The car park will close along with 21 others across the country, which are deemed “no longer commercially viable to operate”.

An NCP spokesperson said: “National Car Parks Limited (NCP) – in administration – 22 sites to close on March 27, while all other sites remain open.

“On Monday, March 16, 2026, Zelf Hussain, Rachael Wilkinson and Toby Banfield of PwC were appointed as Joint Administrators of National Car Parks Limited.

“Following an initial assessment of operations, the joint administrators have identified 22 sites that are commercially unviable and will therefore be closed to customers from 11:59pm on March 27.

“Regrettably, due to the closure of these sites, 33 employees will be made redundant on March 31.

“They will be supported through the statutory redundancy payments process.

“The other 318 car parks remain open and there are no further sites identified for closure at this time.”

The company operated five other car parks in Ipswich, including Tower Ramparts, Cox Lane, Tacket Street, St Georges Street and the Ipswich Station site.

They also operate Greater Anglia-branded sites at Bury St Edmunds and Thurston train stations.

NCP has confirmed that these 22 car parks will close at 11.59 pm on Friday, March 27.
