Parking Standards for New Developments Draft (Nov 2022)

Representation ID: 16008

Received: 18/11/2022

Respondent: Mr Ian Comerford

Representation Summary:

See paras 4.5 and 4.4.5
1parking space per bedroom for a residential property is not enough. Invariably a couple will both have a car. Should be 2 spaces or increase visitor slots to .5 or .75.
One parking space per flatted property is just wrong. This panders to the developers and leads to estates that are not navigable in the evening due to cars all over the pavements!
