Approve to implement the proposed changes to
disabled parking at 43 locations detailed in Table 1

A summary of recommendations includes the following:

• 34 new dedicated disabled bays
• 9 conversions of existing disabled bays to dedicated
disabled parking bays
• Remove controlled parking zone restrictions where the
introduction of new dedicated disabled bays is approved.
• Introduce waiting restriction extension at some
locations

Reasons for the decision

To prioritise parking and safety of disabled
residents who live in the affected roads

Alternative options considered

A “Do Nothing” approach was
considered but not recommended as it would not align to the
Council’s Parking Strategy and our Parking Schemes –
Resident Engagement Policy, and guidance issued by Department for
Transport (DfT).
