disabled parking at 20 locations and ambulance parking at 2
locations detailed in Table 1
A summary of recommendations includes the following:
• 15 new dedicated disabled bays
• 5 conversions of existing disabled bays to dedicated
disabled parking bays

• Remove controlled parking zone restrictions where the
introduction of new dedicated disabled bays is approved

residents who live in the affected roads
