Rejected petition: Stop BCP council charging a day rate for Boscombe Undercliff Drive parking
Rejected on
BCP Council have parking charges on Boscombe Undercliff Drive between 2nd July to 2nd September 2026. If you arrive before 2pm you must pay for 16 hours of parking, there is no option to pay per hour. It is unfair and ridiculous no one is going to the beach for 16 hours.
