Permit Parking Schemes
 |
We have been aware that in many areas of Sheffield, residents, businesses and visitors to local shopping areas experience difficulty parking near their destinations. One of the aims of Permit Parking Schemes is to make this easier through better management of the availability of the spaces in the area.
In the past, a few small local residents parking schemes have been implemented. In 2000 there was a review of local transport policy. It led to the Council adopting a Peripheral Parking Zone around the City Centre in which permit parking schemes could be introduced.
These permit parking schemes have either started or are at the stage where we are asking people in those areas what they think of our plans. These areas are initially selected by the Council based on:
- Where parking problems were known to exist
- Where requests for action had been received
- Where existing Residents Parking Schemes were in place
Locations of the Permit Parking Schemes
The Peripheral Parking Zone will need to be developed in phases. Go to the page of each scheme to find out more.
