Parking divisions in Wollaton have been described as a 'Marmite situation' - with plans put forward which would see residents having to pay for a permit for a second or third car. The city council launched a public consultation inviting discussion on new proposals which have been earmarked for more than 1,000 streets across Nottingham.
Under the change, a permit for one car would continue to be free - but residents would have to pay £35 for a permit for a second car and £50 for a third. Letters were sent to residents on streets in question to notify them of the situation.
However, a separate permit scheme was introduced across parts of Wollaton last year, notably in an attempt to stop non-residents parking up on Harrow Road and Arleston Drive, near Fernwood Primary School. For example of how the restrictions apply here, only residents with a permit can park past a certain point in Arleston Drive, except in relation to specific bays.
