The Council has reviewed parking charges across the borough and is making some changes in response to demand for the parking spaces and to manage provision in these areas. The changes also aim to introduce some consistency across the borough.
The review took into consideration other initiatives, such as planned regeneration, transportation, and highways work, which may affect the supply and demand for parking, to make sure the proposals are as coordinated and ‘joined-up’ as possible, whilst still delivering the underlying principles of the Council’s borough-wide parking strategy.
Phase 1 has focused on reviewing the current charging levels. The changes being made include the use of capped rates for longer stays and also trialling the use of off peak charges. Further phases of changes will follow.
Further information on the phase 1 changes can be found in the supporting documents below.
