Via East Midlands on behalf of Nottinghamshire County Council is looking for your views on some potential changes to on-street parking in West Bridgford, which they are proposing in response to public concern about a lack of parking space in the town.
There are a range of time-limited restrictions around the centre of West Bridgford ranging upwards from 30 minutes.
VIA said:
‘We recognise that customers of the various types of retail businesses in the town will have different parking needs, so these proposals seek to reflect that, as well as simplifying existing restrictions wherever possible.

‘All existing short stay parking of up to 2 hours would be increased to a 3-hour maximum.
‘In areas such as Bridgford Road, where there is some longer stay parking, we propose removing the upper limit on how long a vehicle can stay.

‘In all locations a free 30-minute period is proposed, benefiting those who may only require a short stay.
‘For roads such as Gordon Road, this effectively means no change to the free period currently available, but it introduces the option to pay for longer if required.

‘For Fox and Hound Road adjacent to the cricket ground, although we are proposing a charge, we are also offering residents the option to purchase resident permits for the year.
