Parking plans to drive Wokingham town centre success

Plans to ensure residents, shoppers, workers and businesses in Wokingham town centre have the parking spaces they need were discussed by Wokingham Borough Council’s decision-making executive on October 31.

Executive members approved the Wokingham Town Centre Car Park Strategy, which will now go out to public consultation so that people can feed back into the proposals.

The strategy sets out how the borough council hopes to rationalise existing town centre parking during the next 13 years to meet a population growth across the borough, and ensure it powers the town’s economic health.

The consultation starts on November 1 and will run for six weeks. Parishes and town councils will be contacted directly.
