Councillor Wesley Roberts, Cabinet Member for Finance and Assets said: “We’re seeking residents views on our proposals to re-designate some of our car parks.
“We want to make sure that our car parks can be used by as many people who need them – whether it’s for shopping, work or living nearby – and that they also can support the upkeep and continual improvement of our facilities.
“These proposed changes are part of our efforts to improve parking across the borough as well as making it fairer and more efficient and I’m pleased to say that all the car parks will have a period of free use ranging from one hour to three hours.”
