Parking Services Works Programme
We get many requests for parking restrictions and/or improvements. We add these to the Parking Services Investigation List for consideration for a future parking work programme.
Not every request can be considered due to:
- volume of requests from different households
- safety concerns
- major developments that are taking place nearby
If your road/area is not listed you can request it is considered for a future parking consultation.
