The plan is designed to ensure there will continue to be a well-managed supply of public car parking facilities in the city.

The aims of the draft car parking strategy are to ensure:

  • Car parks are in the right place, reducing the need for vehicles to drive around the city centre looking for a parking space
  • There are enough parking options available to support the evening and cultural economy
  • Spaces are available for Blue Badge holders and those with greater accessibility needs
  • Future development proposals recognise the need for car parking availability in the city centre
  • Car parks are fit for the future and able to accommodate electric vehicles and alternative transport modes (cycle parking/car share hubs etc)
