East Cambridgeshire District Council

Residents, businesses and organisations are being reminded they have until Tuesday 31 January to have their say on the Car Parking Consultation in East Cambridgeshire.

A number of proposals were put out for public consultation in the autumn putting forward various options of annual permits and pay and display tickets in to manage the car parks in Ely.

Anyone who wants to comment on the proposals can do so either online at www.eastcambs.gov.uk, via email: parking@eastcambs.gov.uk or through a leaflet before the consultations closes.

Councillor Peter Moakes, Chairman of Development and Transport sub committee at East Cambridgeshire District Council, said: "There has been a good response to the car parking consultation so far but there is still plenty of time to feed back your thoughts and opinions. With less than three weeks to go please take the opportunity to have your say – we have promised to listen so please take time to let us know what you think.

"The proposals which have been put forward which attempt to address the concerns which we have heard over the last year. The aim is to strike a balance between affordable parking for those wishing to visit and work in the city while ensuring the Council’s budget is not faced with a shortfall."
