Resident parking schemes are intended to manage on-street
parking to ensure that residents have a reasonable chance of
parking in the vicinity of their homes. No scheme guarantees a
parking space. The schemes are introduced where there is severe
competition for on-street parking in residential areas from
non-residents such as commuters or non-local shoppers. Areas
typically have limited off-street parking.
Residents can purchase a yearly permit which must be displayed
in the vehicle when parked in designated residents' parking
bays.
