Controlled Parking Zones Review

Liverpool City Council (LCC) is planning to undertake a comprehensive review of the existing controlled parking zones in the city centre. In broad terms, the review will encompass:

• Review of the boundaries of the existing CPZs, including their sub-zones. • Investigation and recommendations on whether to extend the existing CPZs into new controlled parking zones to the north, south and east of the existing CPZs to meet current and future demands. • Review of the operational times of the existing CPZs. • Review and recommend any changes to the charging tariffs for paid for parking, both for on-street and off-street provisions including between zones and sub-zones. • Review of existing permit arrangements for residents and businesses. This review will not include provision for charging for residents and visitor permits, which are currently free of charge. • Maximising on-street parking provision, and therefore revenue, to meet the increasing parking demand for visitors, businesses and also commuters where appropriate. It is not proposed to introduce significant areas of residents parking areas but where this may be necessary then any new schemes will need to comply with Liverpool's Residents Parking Policy. This has been awarded following a further competition under Lot 11 of the Merseytravel Multi-Party Consultancy Framework.
