told by the guy that he wouldn't recommend any of the nearby car parks for a long stay as they are frequented nightly by drug addicts and prostitutes!!:eek:

I would agree, Manchester is still very high risk for car theft.

If you get a late train in or out from platform 13 you quite often see lady of nights in the street below.

Bringing this post up again.

It's for the whole day Sunday - is there any cheap parking (from 7am to 9pm) or any single yellows around that area?

There are several on road pay and displays around there, which I think are free on Sundays. Just drive around the side streets a bit once you get there, sorry I can't remember any street names...

Park in these pay and display bays here on Ducie Street: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=53.47943,-2.231426&spn=0,359.995177&z=18&layer=c&cbll=53.479507,-2.231201&panoid=CuRa3QHvyIqUdUWrh6H8OQ&cbp=12,201.51,,0,10.71

It's just around the corner from the approach to the main station entrance and is free to park on a Sunday. You should have no problem bagging a space if you arrive before 7am. As always, though, check the signs on the meter as regulations can change at any time.

Yes that was where I had in mind. For some reason they like to print the regulations on the meter rather than put clearly legible signs up.
