Topic: Parking Survey
Posted by: Jeremy Parkinson
Date/Time: 09/04/24 07:41:00

Michael, you continue to miss or deliberately obfuscate the key point here. The conclusion of the original survey was that a reduction of parking spaces at Old Market Place would have limited overall impact as there was plenty of spare capacity. Cllr Biddolph drew attention to the higher use in the evening which effectively undermined this notion.

This doesn't mean the proposals for a makeover for the area are not still worth consideration but that the potential costs to local business cannot be dismissed out of hand (although experience tells me you at least will do this). My view is that the advantages to local trade of a more attractive town centre may outweigh this disadvantates of lost parking space. If this appears to be the consensus among local businesses as well then the plans for the car park should be welcomed.

Issues needed to be considered such as how to prevent it being a place where street drinkers and drug addicts congregate particularly given the low intensity policing currently provided on the High Road. Large congregations of delivery riders need to be discouraged as well somehow. Both of these problems should have relatively straightforward solutions.

However, I think it will be hard to persuade the council to accept a reduced revenue from the car park and therefore the chances of this ever happening are remote for now.
