Pay and display charges will be rising by 50 per cent in parts of the city next month, according to Bristol City Council.
The changes to pay and display parking charges in Residents' Parking Schemes (RPS) areas, as well as parking permits, will come into force from June 6, however the figure is significantly higher than what was approved back in December. In fact, it's substantially more than the 30 per cent proposed originally.
The impacted areas include Bedminster East, Bower Ashton, Cheswick Village, Clifton Village, Cliftonwood & Hotwells, Cotham, Cotham North, Kingsdown, Montpelier, Redcliffe, Redland, St Pauls, Southville and Spike Island. Some of these are situated on the boundary around the Clean Air Zone which is expected to come into force in the city in September time - the charges seems to be targeting those motorists who may consider parking on the boundary in order to avoid entering the zone entirely.

Original plans for the increased figure stated that hourly rates would rise 30 per cent, taking a £1 fee up to £1.30 however, in a notice published to motorists this month, the rise now stands at 50 per cent. There had also been a proposal to scrap free parking for the first 30 minutes, however this will now not go ahead.
Those residents who hold a parking permit, or those wishing to purchase one, will also see the cost of these rise by 17 per cent in RPS areas, as well as in Edward Road and Chatsworth Road in Brislington and Pitlochry Close in Horfield. According to a council report, this rise has been dubbed as 'inflationary' as apparently prices had not been put up for years.
The notice - which you can read in full here - does not include Clifton East, or Easton and St Philips, stating: "Information and implementation dates to follow in due course" for these areas.
