Parking sign
Parking Controls adjacent to Scotstoun Leisure Centre - How the scheme works.

 

Glasgow City Council has introduced permit  parking controls in streets near to Scotstoun Leisure Centre which will come into force during relevant, well attended events only. 

How The Scheme Works

We, at Glasgow City Council, appreciate that the aesthetics of the 'Avenues' area of Scotstoun is a very important issue to the residents of the area.  A more sympathetic, less intrusive method of parking control was required to respect the amenity of this conservation area. We appreciate that miles of yellow lines and associated signplates can be an intrusive addition to the streetscape.  We, therefore, opted to introduce restrictions without using yellow lines and associated signplates.

By creating a ‘Permit Zone’, restrictions are imposed by installing Zone signing at each entry point to the zone; these can be seen on the detailed plan. These 'Zone Entry' signs will show the time and date of each relevant major event. Therefore the restrictions will only be valid during that time.  The date and time shown on the ‘Zone Entry’ signs will change to show when the next relevant event will take place, thus giving advance notice to the local community.  There will be NO parking bays marked either, thereby allowing residents’ current parking arrangements to continue as before.

Remember, only vehicles which display a valid permit or disabled person’s blue badge will be eligible to park within the zone during restricted times.
