Additional parking projects
The council receive many requests for additional parking provision from residents of the towns and villages across the borough’s 245 square miles.
Although the council does not have a statutory responsibility to provide parking solutions in residential roads and is not the highway authority, it does recognise the impact that parking problems can have on people’s quality of life. Consequently, the council initiated a programme of additional parking construction works. A review of the programme in 2014 involved parking surveys at over 400 roads. Priority for treatment is given to those residential roads that suffer the worst parking difficulties.
The information on this page is about building new residential parking areas. If you are looking for information regarding residential parking permits, please view our webpages on resident and visitor parking permits.
