Consideration please
I have a request. Please be considerate.
Mobility car parks are few and far between. And too many people, without the need of them, without permits, park in them “just for a minute”.
In Havelock North it seems to be improving. But…
Mobility scooters are just as much of a problem, parking in mobility car parks. Please don’t.
In HN, there are plenty of wide footpaths and accessible areas where you can park your mobility scooters, even under cover, including New World, but not many where I can park my 6.3m long, 2.5m wide, 2.9m high mobility permitted van. I don’t fit just anywhere.
I carry passengers who are visually impaired, blind, disabled, physically frail, suffering dementia and have other health, physical or cognitive difficulties. I can’t just park anywhere.
It’s easier for you to find parks for your scooter, than it is for me with my van.
You can even drive your mobility scooter into some businesses.
Please, Please, Please, don’t park mobility scooters in mobility car parks.

So we want to hear what you think:

-
14.3% ... It is complicated
