Car share parking
Car share parking is an efficient use of parking space because one shared vehicle can replace many private vehicles that would otherwise compete for local parking. Car share also reduces overheads for residents who don't need to own a car.
Council supports car sharing as a part of its drive to:
- reduce greenhouse gas emissions;
- reduce on-street parking demand;
- reduce congestion and the competition for parking spaces; and
- encourage active lifestyles by reducing dependency on private cars
Council has approved a number of on-street and off-street car share parking spaces throughout the council area. To apply for on-street parking for a car share vehicle please use the application form (DOCX 66KB)and refer to the Car Share Policy.
