Parking Soutergate, Ulverston
Overview
We are looking to consult with members of the community regarding the proposed residents parking bays and restrictions on Soutergate.
Why we are consulting
Residents have raised issues regarding parking over a number of years. James Airey has met with residents to discuss alternative solutions to improve parking on Soutergate for residents. It is proposed to extend the existing parking bay on Soutergate with additional spaces and make the bay residents only. It is also proposed to introduce single yellow lines No Waiting 8am - 6pm on part of Soutergate to allow for parking in the evening.
What happens next
All comments will be compiled to infrom the parking proposals going forward. If parking restrictions are appropriate and to be implemented a formal traffic regulation order will be completed with further consultation for objections.
