Answer

I can advise the Member that, as at 7 November 2016, there were no residents parking schemes in operation.

However, I have recently announced a residents’ parking scheme in the College Park Avenue / Rugby Road area of south Belfast.

The scheme, which will include a combination of parking spaces for residents and pay and display spaces, will move to the next stage of consultation in the coming weeks. If these further consultations are successful, a scheme could be in place by summer 2017.

I am continuing to look at this issue to see what other schemes can be brought forward, including proposed schemes in the Rossville Street area in Derry and Massereene Street and Clarke Court in Antrim, to address what is a very real concern for many people living in our towns and cities.
