Motion by Councillor Miller - Pay and display parking charges

“Committee:

1.    Welcomes the phased easing of the Covid-19 lockdown

2.    Notes the associated increases in movement by car around Edinburgh and the requirement to manage parking demand, as one of a number of ways to incentivise only essential travel and avoid congestion

3.    Additionally, notes the significant contribution of parking revenue to Council income at a time when council budgets are under significant pressure

4.    Agrees to reintroduce pay & display parking charges in central, peripheral and extended areas, for vehicles not displaying a resident parking permit, at the earliest opportunity and no later than Phase 2 of the Scottish Government Route Map”
