New Bristol parking zone to start in December
- Published
The new parking zone will encompass areas such as Hampton Road in Cotham
A parking zone in the Cotham area of Bristol will be in place by December, the city council has said.
The Liberal Democrat-controlled authority approved the scheme - which will run from Cotham Hill to Redland Road - earlier in the year.
A spokesman for the council said work would begin within weeks to mark out the bays and the double-yellow lines ahead of the December start.
Zones currently operate in Kingsdown and the central area of the city.
Households within the zone will have to pay 拢30 per year for a permit for their first car and 拢80 for a second but with no guarantee of a space.
Plans for a similar scheme in Cliftonwood were turned down last year after residents told the city council they did not want it.
The council has also recently added two-hour bays along many of the roads off Whiteladies Road.
