Rejected petition Stop more parking meters going up around the outskirts of Cheltenham
Yet more parking meters are being added to the outskirts of Cheltenham town making it harder for shoppers and commuters.
They say its to help residents but it also puts strain on the businesses that are already struggling to get the foot fall they need.
More details
Cheltenham Parking Review - West: West End, Lansdown & Railway
Current Stage: Stage 3 - Statuary consultation - (May 2016)
They are focused on the plans round the railway lines but have not made people aware that they have also proposed meters from parabola road, Overton park road right though to the Lansdown roads.
Just another way for them to squeeze money out of shoppers who are now more likely to visit the out of town shopping centres to do the Christmas shopping etc
