Dorset Council has published its Parking Review with proposed next steps for its Parking Strategy for 2027/28.
DAPTC hosted a series of Working Together Webinars over the summer to help Dorset Council gather the views of town and parish councils. The review is being presented to Dorset Council Cabinet, 10 November, and larger councils, particularly those with council-owned car parks, significant visitor demand or town centre parking pressures are encouraged to review the proposals. Now is a good time consider local implications, familiarise yourselves with the proposals and start local discussions about the potential impacts for your community.
The next phase of engagement will take place on a town-by-town basis. Further consultation is expected during late 2026 and early 2027, ahead of the final recommendations being implemented from April 2027.
