Cllr Jeremy Hilton, county councillor for Kingsholm and Wotton, said: “There are several hotspots in Elmbridge ward where on-street parking congestion is causing problems for local residents. I have successfully persuaded the parking team to review these issues, and I strongly encourage residents to write in and respond to the three key questions. We have secured funding from the Highways Local budget to cover any necessary new traffic regulation orders. I am pleased to support this review, which will lay the groundwork for improving parking for everyone in the community." 

Cllr Roger Whyborn cabinet member for Strategic Highways and Sustainable Transport, said: “We want to hear directly from you about your day-to-day experience of parking in Elmbridge.
