Bridgnorth - Listley Street - parking restrictions

Proposal

Title of scheme

Bridgnorth - Listley Street - parking restrictions

Description

This proposal follows the completion and analysis of a questionnaire distributed to residents in May / June 2022 and a further public consultation workshop in December 2022. The proposal is intended to reduce vehicle congestion, facilitate the safe passage of traffic and access to property whilst giving residents equal opportunity to park near to their homes. The introduction of virtual permitting and visitor hours will give improved access and greater flexibility in service provision.

It is proposed:

  • To create residents only permit parking bays using the existing space as well as new bays to allow residents to park near their homes as well as facilitating the safe passage of traffic
  • To create a shared use daytime loading only and night-time residents permit parking only bay. The existing loading only bay to the west of the road is to remain loading only 24/7
  • That eligible residents of the Listley Street scheme will be able to purchase one resident parking permit per premise
  • That any proprietors of holiday let properties located within the Listley Street scheme may purchase a parking permit for use by their customers during the rental of the holiday let property
  • That owners of businesses will no longer be eligible to purchase Listley Street residents parking permits
