A group of travellers have left a park and ride in Truro just hours after being issued with a court order.
The council applied for one after a 'Direction to Leave' was missed.
That was issued after caravans pitched up at Tregurra near Waitrose over the weekend.
The site currently remains closed and is scheduled to reopen at 6.30am on Thursday morning.
"Following the issue of a court summons by the Council, the unauthorised encampment has now left the Tregurra Park and Ride site in Truro.
"The site remains closed at the moment, but we will provide an update later today on when the park and ride service will resume from Tregurra.
"The park and ride site at Langarth remains open with a shuttle bus service running into the city centre – more information is available at www.parkfortruro.org.uk__"
Cornwall Council
The Council has since issued a further statement, confirming that the site will reopen on Thursday.
"Truro Park and Ride will resume normal service from tomorrow (Thursday) when the Tregurra site reopens at 6.30am.
"We'd like to thank passengers for their patience."
