Car sharing policy

Takeaways

• We installed our first car sharing parking space in 2008.
• Since then, over 800 dedicated on-street car share parking spaces have been added to the network (around 2% of all kerbside parking).
• In addition, our local planning controls will increase the number of car sharing spaces provided in new commercial and residential developments.
• Residents and businesses in our area hold over 50,000 car share memberships.
• Car share users typically avoid or curtail vehicle ownership, resulting in fewer cars and emissions, and less competition for parking.
