CAR PARKING
You may have read the reference to a car parking review in the recent COMT note which stated the following:
‘The review of car parking is still taking place but it has been delayed. We will receive a first report on this at our next COMT meeting in May. I want to stress that there are no preconceived results of this review. There will also be a consultation period, when we have looked at the options. You will probably hear more about this in June. Meanwhile everyone who receives car parking should have had their season tickets renewed for a six month period.’ (COMT Highlight Report (Number 6) – May 2008)
Napo has previously sent out notes on this subject to members. We need to make it clear that the recognised trade unions have not been party to the review. Although we were told we would have a place on the working party that did not happen. We made this comment about car parking on the Hampshire branch website on 27 April.
PARKING: HPA promised last July to establish a working party, including the unions, in the autumn of 2007. That did not happen. We know that the provision of permits has been extended, but we have been told nothing formally by HPA. We can only surmise that the large surplus from last year has eased the need to address the parking issue. We know the issue of parking costs remains a major and abiding concern for members.
