Plans for free parking on Saturdays in Elmbridge have been revealed by the local council.
Car parks in Thames Ditton, Molesey, Hersham and Long Ditton have been ear-marked for the scheme.
The thinking behind the scheme is that the car parks are much less busy during the weekend and free parking could help support local shops and businesses.
Free car parking would be introduced for between one to four hours, which was considered as enough time required to visiting the local shops.
A review of the effect of the plans would take place nine months later to see if they were successful.
The car parks in question are Ashley Road in Thames Ditton, Walton Road in Molesey, New Berry Lane in Hersham, and Southbank in Long Ditton.
