Write or speak to your Councillors…

… if you are concerned about the proposed car park at St George’s Field. You can find their contact details here. Note that the Executive Member for Transport is Councillor D’Agorne . You may want to include in your message some of the points below:

Does the car park make financial sense?

At an estimated outlay of £14 million, evidence needs to be provided that there will be sufficient fees to cover costs and turn a profit.

Does it make strategic sense?

We need to know first whether a project on this scale fits in with priorities being set in the Carbon Reduction Strategy and Local Transport Plan.

Does it make environmental sense?

The lifetime carbon impact of the project should be taken into account, given our commitments under the Climate Emergency and COP26.
