Residents’ concerns have been raised over an extended period and have centred on vehicles being parked for long periods and vehicles that have been abandoned.
E&I President Deputy Barry Brehaut said the issues are ongoing and with no signs of significant improvement, his committee had decided to prioritise regulated parking in this area.
“When incidents like this occur, it is not only a nuisance but also restricts the availability of parking for other road users,” he said. “The absence of regulated parking means that Guernsey Police has limited powers to deal with these issues.

“Guernsey Police has been consulted and are supportive of the proposal and what we are trying to achieve.”
The introduction of 23-hour approved parking does not actually require parking discs to be displayed, however it does require a vehicle to be moved at least once every 23 hours.
Anyone who wants to comment own the proposal should write to Traffic and Highway Services, PO Box 145, Bulwer Avenue, GY2 4LR or email: traffic@gov.gg to arrive no later than Friday 16 March 2020.
