Circumstances for Reduced Car Parking Provision
Reduced car parking may be acceptable in specific circumstances including where alternative transport modes are promoted, the location has good public transport access, nearby public parking is available, shared parking is viable, or where flexibility supports heritage conservation or building reuse.
Beyond areas of parking restraint identified in a development plan, a reduced level of car parking provision may be acceptable in the following circumstances: where, through a Transport Assessment, it forms part of a package of measures to promote alternative transport modes; or where the development is in a highly accessible location well served by public transport; or where the development would benefit from spare capacity available in nearby public car parks or adjacent on street car parking; or where shared car parking is a viable option; or where the exercise of flexibility would assist in the conservation of the built or natural heritage, would aid rural regeneration, facilitate a better quality of development or the beneficial re-use of an existing building.
