Decision details

The Cabinet will be asked to approve proposals to extend the ‘free’ parking period at Council-owned car parks and on-street secondary shopping parades as well as offering 10 free visitor parking permits to residents in new CPZ areas, as part of the Council’s package of support to local residents during the current cost-of-living crisis.

(i)  Agree to extend the ‘free’ parking periods at Council-owned car parks from 1 hour to 2 hours and at secondary shopping parades (on-street) from 30 minutes to 1 hour in respect of all existing and future pay-by-phone locations; and

(ii)  Agree that households within future Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) areas be offered 10 free visitor parking sessions in the first year.
