Rule 205 - Parking for longer than indicated

Many parking spaces in an around busy commercial and some residential zones have had Time Limit restrictions installed so as to ensure that drivers move their vehicles on a regular basis. The underlying reason for the installation of such time limits is an attempt to ensure that ample parking spaces are available for those motorists who need them most - short term visitors to the area or customers needing the services of local businesses.

Time limits apply to some private car parks and also to some public streets within the Council area. They have been set to keep car parks available for shoppers and should not be used for all-day parking.
