Graham Conway, Managing Director at Select Car Leasing, said: “For many residents, particularly those on low incomes, the additional cost of securing a yearly parking permit can be a significant financial burden, particularly in the midst of a cost of living crisis.
“While councils argue that costly permits are necessary to fund local services, to maintain the travel infrastructure, and to act as a clean air initiative, the vast majority of residents see such high prices as simply a cash cow, as they’re beaten into a corner for wishing to park on the street outside their property.
“And when you consider that some councils charge more than the cost of a Premier League season ticket, you’re left to wonder whether residents are being short-changed.
“Ultimately, any decision by a council to increase parking permit fees in the future must be made with careful consideration of the needs and concerns of residents and the potential impact on the community.”
