Motion text

That this House notes the proposal by Westminster City Council to extend on-street parking restrictions to midnight from Monday to Saturday and between 1.00pm and 6.00pm on Sundays; expresses concern at the impact that such restrictions will have on those working unsocial hours in the entertainment and leisure industries, which are a major component of the local Westminster economy; is particularly concerned about the effect this will have on women and more vulnerable workers who have to use their own transport at times when public transport is not running; and calls on Westminster Council to reconsider its parking proposals for those who need to be able to travel to and from work by car.
