Issue details
limited free parking in Red Meadow Car Park
To enable Red Meadow car park in Ross on Wye
to allow four hours of free parking per visitor a day. This will be
operational from period 21 June 2024 to 19 July 2024.
The Town Council and Ward Councillors have been lobbying
Herefordshire Council via multiple channels to offer free parking
in the town centre, as a response to the works undertaken by Welsh
Water.
The Cabinet member has decided that being able to offer some free
car parking is a suitable remediation offer to the retail outlets
of Ross on Wye.
This will involve changing the parking machines, changing the
RingGo parking app, and informing CEOs on the ground in Ross-on-Wye
regarding these changes.
We will also make changes so that no vehicle can park for more than
one four hour period per day.
These changes will then need to be reversed at the end of the free
4 hours parking period i.e 19 July 2024

Consultees
The main driver for this decision is from the
Town Council and several ward councillors. This is in response to
work undertaken by Welsh Water in the Ross on Wye town centre, and
perception this has affected retail income levels during the tie of
the street works
