The Christchurch City Council decided to increase the price from $10 to $15 citing the Christchurch Hospital park-and-ride operating from the parking building and new shops and businesses opening nearby.
"There is now high demand for short stay parking and the Lichfield St parking building regularly nears capacity," it said.
The new charge will start on July 1. The council said it hoped charging more would free up more short stay parking spaces.
The Lichfield St car park building has 805 parks and initially ran below capacity.

Hearty gameday choices include blue cheese dip, fried camembert with paprika and parsley, halloumi chips with dukkah, chicken, spring onion and vintage cheddar pizza and smoked cheese and chilli nachos.
So stop off at the chiller section of the supermarket to stock up on quality Mainland cheeses to help craft and create some delicious snacks. Then no matter how your team plays, your friends will go home happy.
Does anyone have some large packing boxes they want to get rid off?
Thanks

A more realistic outcome is early burnout, loss of motivation and potential mental health issues in later life.
Since 2008 we’ve seen a 60% surge in sporting injuries among under 14s. This is twice that of any other age group.
