Albany Street Connection Project Parking Submission

Submission

Do you think the proposed P5 restrictions for the 4 new carparks by the University Library are appropriate?
No

If not, what restriction/s would you suggest?
What can you realistically do in 5m when parking there? There are already quite a few P5 parks. Make them P30 or more, maybe paid to discourage car use and to allow those who really need the car to park long enough for what they need to do. IAlso, having lots of P5 parks next to the cycleway means a lot of drivers will hastily jump across the cycle way all the time.

Do you think the proposed P5 restrictions for the 5 new carparks opposite Hyde Street are appropriate?

Do you think these parking restrictions (as shown in the map) are still appropriate?
No

If no, what changes to the restrictions do you recommend?
Longer parking restrictions and paid parking would be preferred, since it will result in less cars being used and fewer overstayers.

Do you have any other comments about the proposed restrictions on Albany Street and surrounding streets?
I am supportive of any change that contributes to the appeal and safety of a cycle way and to disability parking. Car parks can remain where they don't impact the cycle way or disability parks or require the removal of trees. Longer parking (P30+) and paid parking are preferred to discourage people from using the car.
