dailyrecord.co.uk:

Buddies can now go digital when paying for parking in Paisley town centre with the introduction of RingGo.The app, which can be downloaded onto mobile phones, allows drivers to pay for car parks or on-street-spaces.People can also visit RingGo’s website or use its 0141 437 8378 number to pay – with cash payments still available at machines on site.The Free for Three pilot remains in place at Orchard Street, Weighhouse Close, Hunter Street (upper and lower), Oakshaw, School Wynd and the Lagoon Leisure Centre.This means the first three hours of parking after 10am at these locations is provided for free and any additional time would need to be paid for as normal.Councillor Michelle Campbell, convener of Renfrewshire Council’s infrastructure, land and environment policy board, said: “We want to provide people using our car parks with additional forms of payment as we know it’s not always possible to have change ready to use.Renfrewshire Live, the new free app dedicated to bringing you around the clock breaking news, is now available to download.Powered by the Paisley Daily Express, Renfrewshire Live is your go-to source for news, features and sport with live coverage provided direct to the app, seven days a week.The dedicated team of experienced journalists, responsible for the publication of the award-winning Express, will focus on breaking news, day and night, across Renfrewshire’s towns and villages.There is also a dedicated St Mirren section that will follow every kick of the ball with the Buddies.Available on both Android and Apple.
