Bold Lane is a multi-storey car park in Derby, Derbyshire, England named after the road on which it lies. A 10-floor building with 440 parking bays, it is open 24 hours a day. Operated by Parksafe Systems, it has been listed as one of the most secure places in the world in a general interest news report. Security experts are generally amused by this claim, noting that bank vaults, prisons and military bases are generally seen as more secure. Competing car parks in the area are cheaper and closer to the main shopping centre but Bold Lane is still frequently used by shoppers.

Famous quotes containing the words bold and/or lane:
“He said “Next time can I bring my friend?”
And I thought “Does he mean friend?”

It was the Dark Ages. Men and men.
And they could still put you in prison for it.
And did, dear.”
—Alan Bennett (b. 1934)
“The question is whether personal freedom is worth the terrible effort, the never-lifted burden and risks of self-reliance.”
