D.TR3 Parking and permit-free

Development is required to comply with the parking standards for vehicles and bicycles set out in Appendix 3.

Residential development is required to be permit-free in terms of on-street car parking. All parking associated with a development will be required to be located off-street.

Development is required to prioritise sustainable approaches to any parking through ensuring:

  • Priority is given to space for cycle parking
  • The allocation of car-club spaces
  • There are sufficient electric-charging points
  • Any parking spaces are distributed across all tenure types with priority given to family homes and accessible properties, and
  • Where suitable, publicly-accessible shared cycle hire scheme docking station(s) are provided as part of the development (or through a financial contribution).
