Pressure on parking prompts pleas for restrictions in city

Alex Loo Reporter from Manawatū Standard

Hi neighbours,

Palmerston North is getting busier, making it harder than ever for workers to park all day around the fringes of the central city. The lack of parks in neighbourhood streets is causing tension between workers and residents.

Do you have a problem with workers parking in your street all day? Or is finding a park near your work a nightmare? Let us know what you think.

Poll: Is the increase in disability parking fines fair?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.
