Residents' Parking Schemes
Portsmouth City Council has successfully implemented a number of Residents' Parking Schemes throughout the City since 1999, with the sole aim of optimising parking opportunities for residents, whilst ensuring businesses are catered for.Residents' parking schemes are requested by residents through their Ward Councillors or Neighbourhood forums. Once sufficient support is shown for such a scheme, the Parking Service then conducts a survey of residents' views via a survey form, which asks how they would prefer their scheme to operate. The results are then analysed and entered onto a database.
At this stage, if sufficient support is shown, the legal process of advertising for public consultation takes place, followed by the implementation of the scheme. Residents' Parking Schemes are enforced by Civil Enforcement Officers employed by Portsmouth City Council.
