Change of use of parking bays, Tonbridge
Parking in Avebury Avenue, Tonbridge has always been contested between those wanting short-stay parking near to the town centre, and residents who wish to park close to their homes.
The existing parking bays in Avebury Avenue, Tonbridge allow both permit and Pay and Display parking, this causes problems for the differing users to find appropriate spaces and the Pay and Display facilities are significantly underused.
It is proposed that the Avebury Avenue, Tonbridge bays to the west of Holford Street are no longer Pay and Display, and that the bays to the east of Holford Street are two hour limited waiting and D1 permit holder parking, this should better meet the needs of town centre visitors and residents.
