Decision details

The parking and waiting restrictions at Old Park Mews and King Street, Ripon be introduced as proposed and the impact upon parking opportunity for neighbouring residents is noted.

The proposed parking and waiting restrictions on King Street are essential to address significant safety concerns, particularly improving visibility for vehicles exiting the roundabout and preventing dangerous driving behaviours. While alternative solutions, such as a residents' parking scheme, were objective of the restrictions is to ensure the safe flow of traffic and protect all road users, which is why it is recommended that the restrictions still be imposed.

In light of the objections received to the proposed parking and waiting restrictions at King Street, we considered several alternative options to try and address the safety issues while minimising the impact on residents and local businesses.
