Parking Requirements for New Developments

On Monday the city council approved revised parking requirements for new developments. In the past, the Labour government planning rules meant new developments were prevented from having proper parking and this led to blocks of flats being built with little or in some cases no parking. This has caused massive problems for local residents. The new government rules now allow councils to set their own local parking standards for developers.

On Monday we brought in changes that will mean at least one space can be provided per one bed flat and more parking for larger flats and houses.
