Hide AdIt follows an initial consultation in 2017 on a road space audit for the city that identified possible ‘spare capacity’ for commuter parking in residential streets.
Two exhibitions of the proposals have already been held, but two more are planned and will be held on Wednesday March 20, from 10am to 4pm at Old Court Room, The Council House, North Street, Chichester, PO19 1LQ and on Monday March 25 from 2pm to 8pm at the Swanfield Community Centre, Swanfield Drive, Swanfield Park, Chichester, PO19 6GH.
Details of the Parking Management Plan, designs, maps and Frequently Asked Questions, are also available via the council’s on-line consultation hub and include a questionnaire to aid responses. Please see: https://haveyoursay.westsussex.gov.uk/highways-and-transport/chichester-proposed-parking-management-plan/
The deadline for responses is Sunday March 31. The feedback will then be analysed and a report made to the South Chichester County Local Community Committee in June.
