Residents' Parking Schemes
The Council receives several
requests a year for parking schemes in residential areas, where
residents experience difficulties due to the use of roads for
parking by commuters and shoppers.
Any residents' parking scheme needs
to be well enforced, or the restrictions will be ignored. With the
introduction of ParkSafe the Council now has enough Parking
Attendants to be able to consider the introduction of schemes where
appropriate.
In residents'
parking schemes, spaces are not reserved for
particular permit holders, and the availability of a parking space
cannot be guaranteed. Since schemes need to be self financing,
a small charge of £30 will be made for a permit to cover
administration costs. For further details on how to
apply contact the Parking Office on 023 9244 6647 or 023 9244
6408.
A six month experimental scheme
across certain roads in central Emsworth was successful and has now
been made permanent. There was little support for a wider
scheme across Emsworth and so this has not been pursued.
Surveys are currently under way in parts of Havant to see whether a
suitable scheme can be promoted.
For details of the proposals for
Havant residents schemes see Proposals for
Havant
Residents Schemes.
Details of any proposed Residents'
Parking Schemes will be found under "
Traffic Order Proposals" .
