Proposal for the introduction of graduated parking suspension charges boroughwide

Residents often complain about the number of suspensions of parking suspensions, especially long-term suspensions, as it reduces the available parking spaces, thereby increasing parking stress, and arguably adding to congestion and pollution. As a result, officers propose introducing a graduated structure for suspensions fees to the following:
• £40 per space per day for suspensions lasting between one and five days;
• £60 per space per day for suspensions lasting between six and 42 days;
• £80 per space per day for suspensions lasting for 43 days or more.
